California shellfish & seaweed · public pages
Terms of Use
Effective October 30, 2026
What Permit Reef is
Permit Reef charts the public permitting route for California shellfish and seaweed farming and gathers what agencies have published. It files nothing, gives no legal advice, and does not speak for any agency. The agency notice remains the legal record. Always confirm details with the agency before you act.
Accuracy
We show where each item comes from and when it was last checked. Costs and timelines may be estimates, and they are labeled when they are. Things can change after our last check.
Using the public pages
You may read, print, share, and teach from the public pages, including the route summary and the public data feed, as long as you name Permit Reef as the source and do not suggest that Permit Reef or any agency endorses your work.
