WSR 17-18-004 PERMANENT RULES DEPARTMENT OF FISH AND WILDLIFE [Order 17-214—Filed August 24, 2017, 11:30 a.m., effective September 24, 2017] Effective Date of Rule: Thirty-one days after filing. Purpose: Recent clam and oyster survey data, sport harvest projections, and negotiations affecting intertidal treaty and nontreaty fisheries, along with public health considerations and administrative tasks, call for recreational clam and oyster seasons to be opened or extended on some public beaches; and require some beaches to be closed, removed, or the seasons shortened. This proposal reflects those openings and closures. State and tribal comanagers have agreed to increase the unique minimum size for clams at Quilcene Bay tidelands to 1 1/2 inches. There are no conservation reasons to maintain a unique minimum size at this location. Citation of Rules Affected by this Order: Amending WAC 220-330-110, 220-330-140, and 220-330-120.
