MLPA: State Senator Dutton is Tired of the BS - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Cliffs:

WTF?

you want us to assign people to prevent other people from fishing areas of the state at the cost of 20 mil a year?

and it appears that this whole thing is being driven by large companies with an agenda, and is not at all fair.

WTF?

that's what i got out of it.

Thanks for the update Paul. Mr. Dutton does a terrific job of pointing out some, (but certainly not all), of the problems associated with MLPA implementation and the process in general. I will send him a letter today thanking him for his support on this issue and asking how I, (we), can help the effort to get this thing stopped.

Letter sent. I have sent him a couple letters now and am on his e-mail list. This guy needs our support. He's one of the good guys.

I sent an email to Senator Dutton and almost immediately got the following response from someone on his staff. In my email, I asked if there was anything we could do to help the cause. Apparently there is. Please read below.

If you would like to join the effort to oppose the MLPA, you may send a letter of support to Senator Dutton. The leg team in Sacramento will be keeping a file of support letters, and will also occasionally call on supporters to testify before committee or in hearings.

All the letter needs to contain is your personal experience with the fishing grounds in your area, and how the actions of the MLPA would adversely affect you and your community. Be sure to include your contact information if you are open to being contacted by the Senator or his staff.

Letter sent. I fully support Senator Dutton's efforts to shed some light on some of the sleazy corruption in the MLPA process. It's nice to see he's calling people on their BS.
