Marine Life Protected Areas Would Allow for Deep Water Drilling yet would Ban Tribal Gathering

6.29.10

Eureka, CA - Members of local American Indian Tribes interrupted the Marine Life Protection Act Initiative's Science Advisory Team meeting today demanding that they not be blamed for the decline in ocean fisheries.

"We gathered and harvested the ocean's bounty for thousand of years in a sustainable manner. For California to blame Tribes for it's reckless mis-management of our fisheries for the last century is simply appalling," said Frankie Joe Myers, a Yurok ceremonial leader and member of the Coastal Justice Coalition.
