Agriculture committee set to report on oyster shell recycling by Jan. 23, 2026

The Massachusetts Senate ordered the Committee on Agriculture and Fisheries to report on Senate Document 58, which the transcript identifies as relating to oyster shell recycling. The committee was given until Jan. 23, 2026, to make its final report.

The order appeared on the floor as a committee scheduling directive; the transcript contains no committee testimony or bill text. Committee staff or members will determine hearings or further actions ahead of the reporting deadline.

Next step: Committee on Agriculture and Fisheries must prepare a final report by Jan. 23, 2026; the transcript does not state when hearings, if any, will be held.
