Tomales Bay Lease Proposal, Fisheries, and MPA Updates

On March 13th, EAC participated in the Fish and Game Commission’s Marine Resources Committee (MRC) in Sacramento. We spoke on multiple topics, including aquaculture, fisheries, and marine protected areas (MPAs). We raised concerns about San Andreas Shellfish Company’s newly proposed aquaculture lease in Tomales Bay, urged the Commission to continue its harvest moratorium on the severely declining red abalone, and learned more about the MPA petition process, which we will continue tracking closely as we advocate for our Duxbury Reef petition. Thanks to your support, we can continue to advocate for marine coastal issues!
