Abstract
The National Shellfish Sanitation Program is a cooperative State-Federal-Industry effort designed to assure to the consuming public the safety of shellfish (oysters, clams, and mussels) shipped in interstate commerce, and provide for continuing use of a valuable natural resource. The Program is concerned with the sanitary aspects of shellfish production, harvesting, processing, and distribution. The report presents data on shellfish production areas. The data covers the following points by State and by Region; number, size and classification of areas; location of areas by interstate and intrastate waters, and by active and inactive areas.
