Nearly half of all the waters off the coast of the United States are so damaged they cannot fully support aquatic life, an Environmental Protection Agency report released today said.
For instance, more clams once came from the Great South Bay on New York's Long Island than any other place in the United States. But the harvest has deteriorated steadily since 1976."Certain clamming areas are closed after rain because of runoff," said fisherman Gordon Roman. "People are making livings other ways. Clamming is a very hard way to make a living."Long Island is hardly the exception.The EPA gave poor marks to the Northeast and Great Lakes. The worst coastal waters, it said, were in the Gulf of Mexico, where in some places there is no fishing at all. The best marks went to waters off the Southeast and West coasts, but those were graded only "fair."
