4 B SIUSLAW NEWS ❚ WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 23, 2015 C OMMERCIAL D UNGENESS NEWPORT — Fresh Oregon Dungeness crab is back on the menu after fishery managers determined the fishery is ready to open Jan. 4 along the entire Oregon coast. Fishery managers exercised an abundance of caution in opening the crab season this year due to unusual levels of domoic acid found in crabs along Oregon’s southern coast. The month-long delay in opening the season allowed for additional testing for domoic acid in order to provide confi- dence that crab harvested from Oregon waters are safe to con- sume and of excellent quality. “Along with the state agen- cies, the Oregon commercial Dungeness crab industry has taken a very proactive and pre- cautionary approach to the CRAB SEASON OPENS J AN . opening of this crab season in the interest of public safety,” says Caren Braby, ODFW Marine Resources Program Manager. Testing of crab in recent weeks show the elevated levels of domoic acid in the southern half of the state have decreased and are all below U.S. Food and Drug Administration alert levels for three sample periods in a row. Based on these results and consultations with the Oregon Department of Agriculture, the Oregon commercial crab indus- try and Washington and California Departments of Fish and Wildlife, the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife is opening the ocean commercial Dungeness crab season along the entire Oregon coast just after the New Year, Jan 4. Commercial crab boat lights will start dotting the horizon Jan. 1 as boats are allowed to set gear three days prior to the fishery opening. The recre- ational harvest of Dungeness crab in Oregon’s bays and ocean is currently open coast- wide. As the season gets underway, 4 state agencies will continue to monitor marine biotoxins in shellfish to ensure that the con- centrations remain below the alert level to ensure the con- sumer safety. For more information about Oregon’s shellfish marine biotoxin monitoring, call ODA’s shellfish safety informa- tion hotline at 1-800-448-2474.
