Concerning commercial shellfish fees.

HB 2659 freezes existing commercial shellfish fees in Washington State through June 30, 2027. It prohibits the state department from raising fees above 2025 levels for six specific licenses (harvest, shipper, shucker-packer plants) and testing services (biotoxin, paralytic shellfish poisoning monitoring). The bill directly affects commercial shellfish harvesters, shippers, and processing businesses by preventing new fees or increases during this period. This policy change provides fee stability for these industry operators without altering current regulatory requirements.
