Description

Abstract: The objectives of this study were to locate suitable intertidal and subtidal clam planting sites and to determine the feasibility of planting laboratory spawned clams. Criteria used to determine the suitability of potential clam planting sites included: an evaluation of species of clams indigenous to the survey area and the type of substrate and vegetation within the survey area. Major emphasis was in Yaquina Bay to evaluate the distribution of bay clams and potential for planting laboratory-spawned clams. In addition, intertidal surveys were initiated on Alsea and Netarts bays. Work continued during the year to improve our techniques to mass culture Manila littleneck clams Venerupis philippinarium. Laboratory-spawned clams were planted in test plots in several areas of Coos, Coquille, and Netarts bays.
