Critical Alert
Working Landscapes, NPS, Perpetuity, Sound Familiar? What is happening over at Drakes Bay, can and will happen eventually in the Delta. Did the DPC just address 'working Delta landscapes' at their last meeting. Well, take a good hard look at a 'working landscape' that came under control of the NPS (National Heritage Area, anyone?).
The Federal Government has reneged on its contract with these private property owners to renew 40 year leases into perpetuity, which was why the EASEMENTS/SALES went through...and now look at where they are.
Please watch this critical piece from Drakes Bay Oyster Company prior to Salazar's decision to NOT renew leases guaranteed in 40 year terms into perpetuity.

Melinda Terry, NDWA: “We really don’t have an avenue in this process, and it’s been very
frustrating,” Terry told Deputy Secretary for Natural Resources Jerry
Meral. “My one plea is going to be, when you come out with your draft
(plan), please don’t indicate that it really had the input of these
stakeholders and that we helped develop it. My agency will be put in a
position to refute that.”
