Guest guest Posted December 9, 2000 Report Share Posted December 9, 2000 DEMAND PUBLIC HEARING ON MAKAH WHALING +ACE- STARTING FROM DECEMBER 11, PHONE/FAX/EMAIL +ACE- - Sandy Abels +ADw-grwhales+AEA-mindspring.com+AD4- Friday, December 08, 2000 5:59 PM You Help is Needed NOW National Marine Fisheries Service, you know the wonderful people who broke the law to help the Makah kill whales, is at it again. They have lied and misled the public regarding the Environmental Assessment (EA) of the gray whales off the coast of Washington. Cathy Campbell is spearheading the EA. She told Chuck Owens of Peninsula Citizens for the Protection of Whales that the EA will now be out between Jan 1 and Jan 15. Just yesterday she told me before Christmas. She also told Chuck that they are discussing public hearings and in the same conversation said they weren't. My feeling is that they are NOT taking us seriously or don't value how important the public hearings are. Then again she did tell Chuck that they were concerned about what would happen at these meetings. We have had 2 government officials call and request public hearings on the Makah hunt. They now need to HEAR FROM YOU THE PEOPLE +ACE- This is what we need EVERYONE to do : Starting Monday, December 11, we need EVERYONE to phone, fax and email Cathy Campbell and Rollie Schmitten. Messages can be brief but we need them to be frequent. Messages should DEMAND PUBLIC HEARINGS on the Makah Environmental Assessment in Port Angeles AND in Seattle.
