They are expected to include an expansion of the no-harvest zones, reduce the traditional areas for harvesting but expand oyster farming.
The strategy was first announced in December as a means of tackling the dwindling oyster stocks in Chesapeake Bay.

The governor’s plan includes more details on aquaculture, such as permitting and reporting requirements.
