Purpose
The purpose of the Shellfish Conservation Commission is to establish a shellfish conservation program for the town of Scarborough which will ensure the protection and sustainable management of shellfish resources. These goals will be achieved by means which may include licensing, limiting the number of shellfish harvesters, restricting the time and area where digging is permitted, limiting the size of clams taken, and limiting the number of clams taken daily by a harvester.
Meetings are held on the second Tuesday of each month at 6:30 p.m.
