I just recently found out about the MLPA so I know im a little late

heres my angle with this, problem is it might be a little too late

I recently saw a video showing how farmed animals live. and its seriously saddening. if anyone could help, id like to edit that video, and put soem stuff in on farmed fish from china, and then some interviews of fisherman.
  • the goal, to aim the video towards animalists and humanists.when they see how sad farmed animals live, im sure theyll realize that fishing and hunting your own food is a much better way to go
  • Also, to find out if any of these enviros who are funding the campaing are tied with Enron, Texaco, CHevron etc.. to see if any oil companies have plans to expand and put rigs in any of the areas to be closed on the maps
  • to target the youth and show them the farm videos, and teach them about fishing
  • spread public awareness, Im on like 6 forums - get into the east coast forums and get emails to fire off, because this WILL affect them to
only problem, its late
And I just found out the angle and about the MLPA basically @ the end of october, and this forum liek 3 days ago

if theres ANYONE who knows about law, or how petitions work, maybe we can overturn this thing even after they pass
I know that court cases can be appealed.. this isnt exactly a court case, but the justification would be, that the public was never informed!
this is supposed to be a public thing, we are supposed to know
but last night as I said, 90 percent of my custoemrs who fish dont even know what MLPA is!

Thanks for tuning in. We need all the help we can get. I have a feeling we will see a huge awakening after it is too late to do anything. (People outraged and up in arms after it ruins fishing plans for the day)

Unfortunately, this might be our last opportunity to be heard. If your knowledge of this is recent, that means the crowd you hang with are also in need of awakening?

Realistically, the BTRF meeting panel on November 10th will not be interested in general comments or videos. The time for those arguments have long pasted. They will need to hear concrete suggestions concerning what areas are targeted to be closed.

Am I wrong about this guys?

Byron,

This is Billy V from San Diego. I contacted you this summer in late July or, the beginning of August regarding the purchase of Original Kencor Rods. I am sure I told you about the MLPA process, and what was at stake at that time.
I encouraged you to attend the mlpa meeting to view the process, and to offer public comment.

Do you recall the conversation ?
I directed you to this website at that time.

Billy V

I do remember Bo
At the time however, It felt more like a rant and rave
and the sum of the conversation I got was that some board who decided on these things was funded by the enviros who want to close it. And that the guys who were on the board, and funded, got demoded/fired
I talked to a few customers, and they tried to tell me, " well the guy was probably just ranting and raving. Stuff like that doesnt fly or get passed"
So I didnt think much of it.
The next I heard of it, was a bloodydecks email I got on oct 21st. Then it completely sank in. problem is, I live in Norco, and dont have a drivers lisence. I have been really tied up with the business and havent had enough clarity to absorb the gravity of this, until recently. Thats when I saw a torturuous inhumane animal video and got all the brilliant ideas
But apparantly WAAYYY too late..

I forwarded a format for the letter to type and which areas would be good to choose ont eh latest maps to over 100 people..... directly
and even pissed some off for not BCCing them, so they could all see each others email addresses.
Im tryin Bo trust me

Like Dave said above....

The (2) Best things you can do now are write your letters, and attend the meeting on Nov. 10th.

We need the BRTF to see and hear from us.
