It’s safe to eat fish caught from the Ogeechee River, the Georgia Environmental Protection Division said Friday. The announcement came a week after a ban was lifted on swimming in the river, and two weeks after a massive fish kill left thousands of dead fish on the banks of the south Georgia blackwater river. Tests on fish tissue conducted by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency found no reason to avoid consuming fish caught from the river, said Kevin Chambers, spokesman for the Georgia Department of Natural Resources EPD. Earlier tests found the fish died from a severe outbreak of columnaris, a bacteria caused by “environmental stress.”
