Guest guest Posted May 6, 2000 Report Share Posted May 6, 2000 ===== A message from the 'makahwhaling' discussion list ===== FROM WASHINGTON CITIZEN'S COASTAL ALLIANCE -------------------------------- Sekiu, WA- 9:18am PDT The Makah are again actively hunting. The hunt began earlier this morning and continues, although so far, the whalers have not had any success. Moderate swells and choppy seas are making things more difficult for them. We all fervently hope the weather continues to deteriorate. ODI vessel 'Avocet' is on-scene, and the Whaleman Foundation is also present to document the activity. Not surprisingly, the Makah whalers, along with their taxpayer-funded US Coast Guard escort, are violating their OWN rules (again) by not broadcasting SECURITE messages on VHF Channel 16 every half hour. This can be added to a long list of violations both the Coast Guard and Makah regularly commit on their OWN rules. More details as they become available... ***** YOU CAN HELP ------------ Your help is still urgently needed. Please pass on the following information to as many like-minded people as possible. Contributions to the WCCA general fund can be mailed to: WCCA c/o Olson's Marina 444 Front St. Sekiu, Washington USA 98381 Or, you can call in with a credit card donation: (360) 963-2311 ***** _______________ The simple way to read all your emails at ThatWeb http://www.thatweb.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
