| Notes | This report is an update of shellfish investigations from April 1961-March 1962. It includes a summary of observations of clam conditions, and discusses a Netarts Bay clam mortality, which drove the Fish Commission to ask the Tillamook County Court to inform them of any future construction projects involving estuaries. It brings up a potential Highway 101 reroute across two clam beds, and the research that was to be done on those beds. The final significant subjects discussed are personal-use and commercial clam fisheries, including number of diggers, and general information on clams dug. |
