Abstract

The NAC is based on Kosrae Island and includes a basic hatchery, laboratory, offices, gift shop and accommodation facilities. Most of the NAC hatchery operation is routine production of giant clams, predominately T. derasa. According to the manager, Mason Timothy, NAC normally achieves a settlement of 200,000 larvae per spawning. Outdoors, there are 32 five-ton concrete raceways stocked with about 30,000 juvenile clams between 8 months and 1.5 years old. The clams are distributed throughout FSM, mostly for restocking.
