Note | In November, 1952, severe winter storms breached the protective Bayocean Peninsula at the mouth of Tillamook Bay. Before the month was out, the gap had widened to almost a mile. Subsequent sedimentation, erosion and salinity changes damaged oyster beds in the Bay. This document recounts interviews with oyster growers about the losses they suffered when the peninsula was breached. |
