claim in Federal Court.
Kevin Lunny says he and his wife, Nancy, run Drakes Bay Oyster Co. on 1.5 acres of Drakes Estero in Point Reyes National Seashore, northwest of San Francisco. They bought the farm in 2004 from a company that cultivated oysters there since the 1950s.
California has allegedly leased the water bottoms of Drakes Estero to shellfish farmers since 1934.
Lunny says Drakes Bay Oyster employs 31 full-time workers and supplies 40 percent of the California cultivated oyster industry.
