Roundup: Imported shrimp recall / H-1B visas / Woody Jenkins
['Daily Report Staff']
Baton Rouge Business Report
Radioactive contamination: A Seattle seafood distributor has recalled more cooked and frozen shrimp sold at Kroger grocery stores across the U.S. because of ongoing concerns about potential radioactive contamination.
Aquastar Corp. on Saturday recalled nearly 157,000 additional pounds of shrimp sold across more than 30 states because of possible contamination with cesium 137, a radioactive isotope.
Top recipients: Nearly two-thirds of H-1B visas go to computer-related jobs, with top recipients including Amazon, Microsoft, Meta, Tata Consulting Services and Cognizant.
Luncheon speaker: Former Rep. Woody Jenkins will headline the Chamber of Commerce of East Baton Rouge Parish meeting Tuesday at Café Américain in Baton Rouge, speaking on unity after the assassination of Charlie Kirk.
Also at the meeting, local architect Coleman Brown, who chairs the chamber’s infrastructure committee, will outline recommended parish capital improvement priorities.
