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.

PETITION to LIST the Western Ridged Mussel
PETITION TO LIST The Western Ridged Mussel Gonidea angulata (Lea, 1838) AS AN ENDANGERED SPECIES UNDER THE U.S. ENDANGERED SPECIES ACT Photo credit: Xerces Society/Emilie Blevins Submitted by The Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation Prepared by Emilie Blevins, Sarina Jepsen, and Sharon Selvaggio August 18, 2020 The Honorable David Bernhardt Secretary, U.S. Department of Interior 1849 C Street, NW Washington, DC 20240 Dear Mr. Bernhardt: The Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation hereby formally petitions to list the western ridged mussel (Gonidea angulata) as an endangered species under the Endangered Species Act, 16 U.S.C. § 1531 et seq. This petition is filed under 5 U.S.C. 553(e) and 50 CFR 424.14(a), which grants interested parties the right to petition for issue of a rule from the Secretary of the Interior. Freshwater mussels perform critical functions in U.S. freshwater ecosystems that contribute to clean water, healthy fisheries, aquatic food webs and biodiversity, and functioning ecosystems. The richness of aquatic life promoted and supported by freshwater mussel beds is analogous to coral reefs, with mussels serving as both structure and habitat for other species, providing and concentrating food, cleaning and clearing water, and enhancing riverbed habitat. The western ridged mussel, a native freshwater mussel species in western North America, once ranged from San Diego County in California to southern British Columbia and east to Idaho. In recent years the species has been lost from 43% of its historic range, and the southern terminus of the species’ distribution has contracted northward approximately 475 miles. Live western ridged mussels were not detected at 46% of the 87 sites where it historically occurred and that have been recently revisited.

Shellfish are available for harvest by all permitted town residents. Cooperative research and experimentation concerning shellfish culture, the subsequent success of seed in the wild, and the status of the resource is undertaken and reported upon regularly, often funded and validated by scientific research grants. Educational opportunities afforded by the work include school group and open house tours and educational displays at community functions. Annual reporting includes production statistics and values, seed dissemination information, results of research initiatives, a summary of outreach efforts, the status of current and developing infrastructure, and a plan for the following year’s operations. 2015 Full-time Staff Part-time and Contractual Volunteers John “Barley” Dunne – Director Carissa Maurin – Environmental Aide Romy Macari Kate Rossi-Snook – Hatchery Manager Shelby Joyce – Environmental Aide (summer) Christopher Fox-Strauss Pete Topping – Algae Culturist Adam Younes – Environmental Aide (fall) Jeremy Gould – Maintenance Mechanic Carissa and Pete unloading OysterGros Special Thanks to: Barnaby Friedman for producing our annual seeding maps.
