The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD) and the US Department of Agriculture/Animal Plant Health Inspection Services (USDA/APHIS) on Wednesday lifted a quarantine placed on land-based shrimp farmer NaturalShrimp's facility in La Coste, Texas on Aug.7.

The quarantine was placed following the detection of the deadly infectious hematopoietic virus (IHHNV) at the site.
