Yes I know I am
repeating myself, get the point?
Possible manatee
status change strikes balance for supporters, worries environmentalists
Today’s article in
the Daily Commercial newspaper it is plain as the nose on your face as to where
Chuck Underwood, a regional spokesman The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service wants
to go with this because of the statements made by him in the article, or he hasn’t
a clue as to the laws governing his office?
(Officials have
heard a “wide variety of presumptions based on what people think could happen”
if the status is changed to threatened, said Chuck Underwood, a regional
spokesman for the Wildlife Service. “The petitioners think if we reclassify,
they get one step closer to removing speed zones. Plain and simple, they’re
wrong.”)
Plain and simple
Chucky, you are wrong, it could mean the next step is the removal of the speed
signs and you know this, or at least should know this.
(On the other side,
there are those who “think it’s going to weaken protections,” Underwood said.
“You don’t reclassify from endangered to threatened and then immediately take
away all the things that contributed to the improvement.”)
In this statement
you are half right and you should know this also, no you will not immediately
take away all the things the habit from your Fish and Wildlife Service has been
one step at a time.
Boating
organizations, private property owners and the Pacific Legal Foundation want
fun at all cost and can pay well to get it.
Once again for
information that seems to be missing in and around the office of Chuck
Underwood, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
According to federal
law, endangered status means the species is “in danger of extinction throughout
all or a significant portion of its range.”Threatened is defined as “likely to
become an endangered species within the foreseeable future throughout all or a
significant portion of its range.”
So, why would the
government change the classification to threatened, if a return to endangered
status would be expected?
