CURRENT MUSSEL AND CLAM BIOTOXIN DATA
The data below contain recent molluscan bi-valve shellfish (clams, oysters and mussels) biotoxin data. Paralytic Shellfish Toxin (PST) is measured in micrograms per 100 grams (µg/100 gm) of shellfish meats and Domoic Acid (DA) is measured in parts per million (ppm). A result of 80 for PST is the closure limit. A result of 20 for DA is the closure limit. Results in RED are above the closure limit for recreational and commercial molluscan shellfish harvesting. For crab biotoxin results please see the link on the Shellfish webpage. ODA and ODFW may jointly re-open recreational harvesting if two consecutive samples from the same species and the same beaches, both have lab results below the closure limit. Please see the Biotoxin Map on our website for recreational shellfish closure areas. Note: a sample from anywhere in the Clatsop Beach area represents all the Clatsop Beaches.
