2 Identify areas of high clam densities to focus efforts of reclassification of growing areas if possible Look for changes in clam densities and distributions from previous surveys Collect the necessary data for any potential aquaculture efforts
3 Unfunded Federal mandate which strictly controls the harvest of bi-valve molluscan shellfish( clams, oysters, mussels, etc.) through State Shellfish Programs State Shellfish Programs establish harvest areas following strict regulations State Shellfish Programs are audited by U.S. Food and Drug Administration annually
4 1968 Grab Survey Venturi Suction Dredge Duplicated Sample technique of 1976 survey
5 Dredge utilizes water pressure from 4 water pump to vacuum all clams and sediment to a minimum depth of 12 inches Assume 100% efficiency based on pre-sampling tests Collects clams that are less than 1 centimeter in length

14 General survey conducted at 10 stations using a bull rake and hand rake to determine if any bi-valve shellfish were present Only 9 clams were found at all 10 sites Sites were selected to represent all areas of the bay Majority of clams were found near Southern portion of the bay
15 Use available data to make educated management decisions Identify survey method which provides statistically similar data but is less costly and intensive
