The threat of helicopters dropping rat poison over the Farallon Islands National Marine Sanctuary has surfaced once again, thanks to the Trump Administration.
Your comments on this fall’s proposed helicopter dispersal of 1.5 tons of rat poison pellets in the middle of the Greater Farallones National Marine Sanctuary are now being solicited by the California Coastal Commission. The US Fish and Wildlife Service is pushing our Coastal Commissioners to approve a proposed aerial “poison drop” as consistent with California’s Coastal Plan, so the Coastal Commission will be conducting a public hearing in San Luis Obispo on July 10, 2019 starting at 9 am at the Embassy Suites Hotel at 333 Madonna Road, to help them reach a decision.
The website shown below contains a sample letter and link to the California Coastal Commission. Please sign and share.
Thank you.
