According to two blue-ribbon commissions, Americas oceans are in trouble. The commissions called for greater care in managing our oceans and greater involvement of American citizens in decision-making. Instead of following that lead, however, the National Marine Fisheries Service is proposing to weaken the nations bedrock environmental review and public participation law in fisheries management. The proposal opens the door for fishery managers to skip environmental review altogether and severely curtail the publics right to have a say in how our oceans are managed. Take a moment to tell the fisheries service to throw its proposal overboard!
