Wendell Haag, a research fisheries biologist from the U.S. Forest Service, places a concrete silo housing baby mussels in the Clairon River last week.

Haag’s national study of mussels includes twelve rivers and streams in western Pennsylvania and 13 other states.

He was born in Leominster, Mass., and died in Fort Wayne, Ind.
