===Fishing=== Fishing is a very important part of the economy. Oysters are farmed in the bay and keep the bay fairly clean. Sport fishing makes up most of the rest. With nine rivers, salmon is the biggest with nearly recovered runs as salmon had to be given away to the food bank. Tillamook County is the first in the continental United States to be declared ready for a [[tsunami]]. This designation was given by the [[National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration]] after the county paid $15,000 for 27 warning sirens and an emergency radio system. In 2012, county leaders voted to deactivate most of the sirens, in favor of more modern methods. With effort from local residents, the communities of Garibaldi and Rockaway Beach retained their sirens, which will be activated locally.<ref>{{Cite web |date=December 27, 2012 |title=Oregon County Phases Out Tsunami Warning Sirens |url=https://www.opb.org/news/article/n3-oregon-county-phases-out-tsunami-warning-sirens/ |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200627040126/https://www.opb.org/news/article/n3-oregon-county-phases-out-tsunami-warning-sirens/ |archive-date=June 27, 2020 |access-date=June 24, 2020 |website=OPB.org |language=en}}</ref>
