Myself and many others see this as a major problem. Anyone that views the propspectus proposed by the wetland service company will see the spin is really on the "enhancement" of the environment. I do know there are a number of fisherman that do fish eighteen inches of water in this area.... I see it everyday in the spring and summer.
Thanks!

That was in no way directed towards you and sorry if it seems that way. Was directing it at the letter itself. I do NOT live there and have only seen 2 sides of the story, the proposition and this letter. I said before that ON PAPER, the mitigation bank is a great idea. I am sure there are lots of politics involved because its the COE and it already seems to me that this Miami Corp is somehow going to benefit from this
The argument AGAINST this is kind of weak though. I hope that the citizens get together and that if it goes to a trial that the best outcome is reached. Maybe a different area would be better for this thing, I do not know. Just from my point of view, start digging a little harder, maybe look up some endangered species if you truly want leverage. Find some pictures or take some pictures of Least Terns or Piping Plovers foraging or loafing on these mudflats and there you go
Endangered Species will win out. Bald Eagles are no longer endangered, just one of those warm and fuzzy creatures everyone loves. Good luck
