An analysis of the scallop meat count regulation / by K.S. Naidu.: Fs70-8/84-73E-PDF

"Examination of individual commercial meat-weight frequencies from St. Pierre Bank points to little, if any, culling of sea scallops. Here, as elsewhere on the Atlantic seaboard, most sea scallops caught appear to be retained for shucking. Compliance with the meat-count Regulation in force is readily achieved through blending large meats with smaller ones, the latter frequently being predominant in the landed catch. This strategy facilitates the harvesting of considerable numbers of small scallops"--Abstract.
