Investigation and Monetary Values of Fish and Freshwater Mollusk Kills

This publication has been adopted as the legal basis for restitution or fines in more than half the states and has been upheld in numerous legal challenges. This current version presents freshwater mussel values that have been substantially refined since their initial appearance in 2003, and updates the comprehensive methods for assessing fish kills and freshwater mussel kill events. Tables containing updated replacement cost values for most major fish species that are cultured and for freshwater mussel species in the USA are included. This book is a must for anyone involved with fish or freshwater mussel kills, propagation, and water pollution policy.
