After a long and tortuous process, the Supreme Court decided 9-0 today that Florida had not proven its contention that overuse of water by Georgia farmers and water users a decade ago had led to the decimation of its oyster crop in Apalachicola Bay. The decision mentioned the over-harvest of oysters by Florida as well as the impacts of an extreme drought in Georgia that significantly reduced natural water flows in the ACF river basin.
