A committee of the Council investigates the possible consequences of introducing a native Chinese oyster, Crassostrea ariakensis or Suminoe oyster, into the Bay, as proposed by the state of Virginia. Pre-study opinions range from the hope that the foreigners could revive the threatened oyster industry and restore some of the filtering capacity of the original oyster population, to fears that they will outgrow the commercial demand for oysters and upset the ecology of the Bay. The disk contains legal documents and research reports. No index is provided. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
