No fish consumption advisory is on file for any of the 14 named waters in Orange County.
That doesn't mean they've been cleared
Most waters in the United States have never been sampled for contaminants. An absence of an advisory means Texas hasn't published one — not that the fish have been tested and found safe. Check Texas Dept. of State Health Services — Fish Consumption Advisories before eating your catch, and see Texas's statewide guidance, which applies to waters with no rule of their own.
