Notes"During the year we continued our studies on the clam resources in Oregon's estuaries. Our objectives were: to collect data for developing a scientifically sound clam management data base and to refine techniques for assessing the potential for a commercial clam fishery in several of Oregon's estuaries. In addition we continued to monitor the growth of laboratory reared Manila littleneck clams (Tapes japonica) released in Netarts Bay." (from the Introduction)
