Halt Helicopter Tourism Permitting and Operations on Put In Bay
Halt Helicopter Tourism Permitting and Operations on Put In Bay
The Issue
To whom it may concern, we have had enough of the constant annoyance and risk that the helicopter tourism business on our beloved island poses. Day by day, the incessant noise caused by these tourist helicopters infiltrates our homes, disrupting our peace and quiet.
Aside from these disturbing encounters, there's an even more critical issue. The local wildlife, which we deeply cherish and consider essential to our island’s unique character, is suffering. Helicopter noises disrupt their natural habitats, often leading to stress and changes in behavior patterns. According to 'The Humane Society of United States', anthropogenic noise has been linked to various detrimental effects on animals ranging from decreased feeding and reproductive success to premature departure from habitats.
The time has come to put an immediate stop to these intrusive and harmful activities, before any irreversible damage is done to us, our community, and our environment. Let's urge the relevant authorities to revoke permitting and effectively discontinue the helicopter tourism business on our island. It’s time to restore tranquility, and protect our precious wildlife. Please sign this petition and let your voice be heard.
