What's wrong with this piture
« on: October 25, 2018, 01:25:06 PM »

I took a ride Sunday with the wife up to Birch Bay State Park.
I seen one guy out crabbing (he did pretty good, had 4) and the tide was in so nobody was clamming.
But I did notice the two different signs on the billboard there.
What's with the two different reports from two different "Government" Agencies?   :o
What .... No one talks to one another?   :rolleyes:
Looks like their talking out of both sides of their mouths.

It’s a two organization boondoggle.  It’s “legal” to harvest, but the clams etc are not safe to eat.
We have something similar here on the eastside of Puget Sound in area 11... in perpetuity.

What’s wrong with this piture ?

Obviously you are missing the “c”  :dunno:

Sorry could not resist

About the signs, I am betting the brown one is permanent and the other is temporary as toxic conditions persist.

Just a guess

The whole post is a grammar nightmare.
The toxin sign is permanent.
The 'Open' sign is changeable based on test results.

Different species of bivalve shellfish retain biotoxin at different times and rates. For example, some beaches will have a toxic shellfish sign, but when you look at the DOH website it says closed for butter and varnish clams only. Other clams, such as horse clams or geoduck, may be open during the butter/varnish clam closure because they hang on to the biotoxins for less time following a toxic event.

The toxic shellfish sign remains permanently so that the state is not liable for people who fail to check the hotline or DOH website. However, some bivalves on the beach are perfectly safe and available for harvest to those who take the time to check it out.

We used to get some Big Horse Clams (some over 14 years old, judging by the size and the number of rings on the shells) during the Minus Tides on the Beaches in King County. 
At that time they were open for harvesting by Department of Game but were deemed not fit for human consumption, By the Department of Health (due to all the sewage dumping into King County waters, mainly Septic Tanks leaching into the soil).
 Made for some great bait for catching other critters at the time, at least until both agencies finally got together and closed the whole County to any harvesting.
 I bet there are some Big Ol Clam's under those sandy beaches today.
