We have new opportunities to stop an irresponsible plan that would allow commercial-scale fish farming in the Gulf of Mexico. This may be our last chance to let the Gulf of Mexico Fishery Management Council know that no plans for commercial-scale fish farming in our ocean should move forward without better safeguards and more public input.

Join us at one or more of the public hearings in December 2007. RSVP now to attend a hearing near you, or to request additional information. If you’re not in the Gulf region but would like to be involved, let us know at fww(at)fwwatch(dot)org.
