Map shows endangered whale density along the San Francisco coast as well as current and proposed cargo shipping lanes.In this July 19, 2010 photo released by PRBO/NOAA, shown is a closeup of krill taken in the Gulf of the Farallones National Marine Sanctuary on an ACCESS cruise off the Northern California coast. Whales, including endangered blue whales and humpbacks, have been feeding off plentiful krill off the coast in record numbers in recent years, colliding with large ships coming in and out of San Francisco Bay at higher-than-usual rates. After a two-year study spurred by this spike in whale strikes, federal regulators and the commercial shipping industry have agreed to redirect ship traffic coming out of the bay, and make others slow down when whales are present.

In this photo taken Tuesday Dec. 6, 2011, owner Kevin Lunny holds a Pacific oyster at the Drake's Bay Oyster Co. in Point Reyes National Seashore, Calif. For more than 100 years oyster farmers have culled delicious bivalves from the salty waters of a pristine bay tucked amid the green rolling hills of Point Reyes National Seashore, located about 50 miles north of San Francisco. The oyster farm was allowed to remain after the land and waters here became a national park in 1962, but next year Interior Secretary Ken Salazar is set to decide if the company's permit will be renewed.
