The eduipment being used has been made available through Clifford Varin of the Fire Inland Sea Clam Company Long Island. Mr. Varin is along with the equipment to instruct local fishv ermen in its use. The project is sponsored by the Industrial De- velopment Service carried out by the Fisheries Research Board, Federal Department of Fisheries.
During the experiments which are presently being carried out four miles off Cape Bear, an at- tempt will be made to discover the potential of the quahaug in- dustry here;-

The American Fisherman said very few people have ever en- countered ocean quahaugs. He said the flavor is much the same as those found near the shore but - the texture of the deep sea var- iety is more tender. He said they ane'quite edible in a raw state.
MruVarin estimated that apart from the boat it would take about $5,000 to equip a small sized dragger with the dredging equip- ment required to harvest the mollusks from the ocean floor.
The dredge is towed along the bottom and to it is attached a manifold from which several jet streams of water are forced at 40 lbs. pressure at the rate of 750 gallons per minute.
This extreme water pressure serves the purpose of keeping the ocean bottom is a state of suspen- sion so that the quahaugs. in a

Neither Dr. Medcof or Mr. Varian pictured this phase of. the industry as starting overnight. They point out that first it must be proven that 'the shell fish can be found in sufficient quan- tities to supportthe industry and secondly markets must be found.
