State fishery managers will
hold a public meeting to dis-
cuss Clatsop County’s razor
clam season and options for
protecting undersized clams in
Seaside on Oct. 22.
Commercial and recre-
ational harvest of razor clams is
on hold along Clatsop beaches
after a recent stock assessment
found a high number of small
clams and raised questions
about how the state should
proceed.
The Oregon Department of
Fish and Wildlife is seeking
feedback from stakeholders on
potential management actions.
Some of the options include
extending a conservation clo-
sure through the winter to give
clams time to grow. A long
stretch of beach is already
closed seasonally from mid-
July through September to
allow young clams to grow
unmolested by diggers.
Smaller clams are often
inadvertently or purposefully
abandoned by diggers in favor
of larger, older clams. Fishery
managers want to prevent this
kind of waste.
Staff will also discuss razor
clam biology, monitoring
efforts and abundance data.
The meeting will be held at
the Seaside Civic and Conven-
tion Center, 415 First Ave., Sea-
side Room, at 7 p.m. on Oct. 22.
