Western Maine Shellfish Toxicity Report
April 14-24, 1998

from Laurie Bean  (Laurie.Bean@state.me.us )

Summary: All stations reporting scores of -40 (NO DETECT). But Laurie reports: "We had one mouse die from the Lumbos Hole area. We use three mice per bioassay and calculate on the median mouse. Since only one died, it is still reported as -40. So, something may be starting to happen in that area."
