  • Sustainable Shellfishshellfish Recommendations for Responsible Aquaculture
    SustainableSustainable ShellfishShellfish Recommendations for responsible aquaculture By Heather Deal, M.Sc. As Sustainable Shellfish went to press, the B.C. Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Fisheries (MAFF) pulled their draft Code of Practice for Shellfish Aquaculture from circulation. This document, upon which much of Sustainable Shellfish is based, was one component in guiding, monitoring, and reg- ulating B.C.’s rapidly growing shellfish industry. The Code was by no means exhaustive – Sustainable Shellfish aims to address its gaps and limitations, including its lack of con- sideration for stringent environmental safeguards on the expanding industry. Now that the Code of Practice has been abandoned by gov- ernment, the shellfish industry is managed via complaints to the Farm Industry Review Board. This board uses "normal farm practices" as a standard, but does not and, according to MAFF, will not define what "normal farm practices" are with regard to aquaculture. In other words, although there is leg- islation in place, there are no longer governmental stan- dards or guidelines specific to this industry. The BC Shellfish Growers Association (BCSGA) does have an Environmental Management System and Code of Practice, which is very similar to that which MAFF pro- duced. The BCSGA Code is not available on their website, so please contact the association directly to request a copy: #7 - 140 Wallace Street Nanaimo, BC V9R 5B1 Tel: (250) 714-0804 Fax: (250) 714-0805 Email: [email protected] The draft government Code of Practice is still available on the David Suzuki Foundation website, www.davidsuzuki.org/oceans. Sustainable Shellfish, used in conjunction with the non- operational Code offers a way forward towards a low impact industry with minimal harmful effects on B.C.’s marine environment and coastal communities.

  • OHA Issues Advisory for Softshell Clams Along Oregon Coast Removing Skin from Clam’S Siphon Dramatically Reduces Arsenic Levels, Public Health Officials Say
    EDITORS: Oregon Public Health Division staff members will be available for interviews from 4 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. TODAY (July 13) in Room 1-A (first floor), Portland State Office Building, 800 NE Oregon St. July 13, 2015 Media contact: Jonathan Modie, 971-246-9139, [email protected] OHA issues advisory for softshell clams along Oregon Coast Removing skin from clam’s siphon dramatically reduces arsenic levels, public health officials say The Oregon Health Authority is issuing a health advisory for the length of the Oregon Coast for softshell clams because they contain high levels of naturally occurring arsenic. The advisory is most important for people who dig their own clams and target the specific species Mya arenaria, since these clams are not commercially available in markets or restaurants. The advisory, issued today by the OHA Public Health Division, recommends removing the skin from the siphon, or “neck,” of softshell clams before eating them. Softshell clams are found primarily in estuary and intertidal regions of the Oregon coast. This advisory stems from tests the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality performed on a variety of shellfish species collected along the Oregon coast as part of its Water Quality Toxics Monitoring Program. DEQ’s tests found that when analyzed whole without the shell, softshell clams contained unusually high levels of inorganic arsenic. Most of the arsenic was concentrated in the skin covering the clam’s siphon. Researchers found that by removing the skin covering the siphon before eating, the arsenic can be greatly reduced, to levels that are not harmful.

  • Seafood Handling and Storage
    Seafood Health Facts: Making Smart Choices Balancing the Benefits and Risks of Seafood Consumption Resources for Health Care Providers and Patients • seafoodhealthfacts.org Patients and Consumers Seafood Safety Seafood Handling and Storage This section provides practical advice for consumers to help them transport, store and prepare seafood products to ensure safety and maximize quality. Introduction There are a number of very good resources for consumers on the safe handling and storage of seafood. The links to the web sites where these resources can be found are provided at the end of this page. If you would like more in-depth information, please go directly to these sites. The following summary was adapted from “A Consumer Guide to Safe Seafood Handling” by Doris Hicks, University of Delaware and “Fresh and Frozen Seafood: Selecting and Serving Safely” from the U.S Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Overview Safe handling and storage of all food should follow the same basic guidelines that are listed below. However, seafood is more perishable then many food items, and the consumer must pay a little more attention to its careful handling. Whether a consumer buys seafood from a market or catches/harvests fish and shellfish on their own, proper handling, storage and preparation are necessary to maintain quality and ensure safety. Although there are many types of seafood available from commercial sources or from recreational fishing, all fish and shellfish are highly perishable, and the same basic storage and handling guidelines should be followed: Keep it cold, Keep it clean, Store it quickly, Prepare and cook it properly.
