Save Point Dume

Save Point Dume

The Issue

Help save Point Dume's rich kelp forests, fish-filled canyon and headland.
 
Point Dume's coastal waters are under threat from overuse and overfishing, but there is a plan to save them.
 
Under legislation passed and signed in 1999, this area can be saved. And by saving it, we can improve the overall health of southern California's ocean.
 
The key is adoption of marine reserve at Point Dume, extending east towards Paradise Cove, by the state Fish and Game Commission.
 
There is broad support for the protection of Point Dume, but some foreign fishing equipment manufacturers are lobbying to exclude it from California's ocean protection plan.  We URGE you to sign this petition to show your support to the California's Fish and Game Commission for a strong network of Marine Protected Areas. Help save Point Dume's rich kelp forests, fish-filled canyon and headland.
