RCTB Volunteers Aid NJ DEP in Planting Clams



Reclam the Bay volunteers Jeffery Silady, Marty Sedlacko and Jim Merritt using t
he "clambo", and the pontoon boat helped NJ DEP Bureau of Shellfish biologist Dr. Gustavo Calvo plant clams.
They spread over 370,000 small (20 mm) clams in the 1900 acre Sedge Island Marine Conservation Zone. These clams are a big addition to the 150.000 plus clams that we grew in our shellfish lease and planted previously. The photos show the clams in the boats prior to planting.
