The purpose of the Oyster Reef Recovery Act of 2025 is to create a program aimed at restoring and conserving oyster reefs in the United States. This initiative is intended to address the decline of these important ecosystems, which play a vital role in maintaining water quality and providing habitat for various marine species. Key provisions of the Act include the establishment of the Oyster Reef Restoration and Conservation Program, which will be managed by the Secretary of Commerce through the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
