The management objectives for the razor clam fishery
are:
Manage the razor clam resource on all coastal
beaches for recreational use with a minor separate
commercial fishery located only on detached spits
of Willapa Bay.
Protect public health and safety.
Manage the resource to maintain stable and healthy
populations.
Maximize recreational opportunity.
Provide a quality recreational experience.
Independently manage the razor clam populations
on Kalaloch, Mocrocks, Copalis, Twin Harbors and
Long Beach while considering the pertinent interactions
of seasons, effort, opportunity and tribal allocations.
Provide for consistent commercial fishing opportunity
that does not conflict with the recreational fishery.
