"A voice for the whales"
Here is a short exerpt from PCPW's comments on the Makah Whaling DEIS. Below is a link to download the full document.
Ever since NOAA’s first Environmental Assessment rubber-stamped the Makah whale hunt, we have naively believed that a thorough and honest EIS would find way too many potentially negative impacts to people and whales to justify a return to whale "harvesting" in Washington State. The release of this DEIS has shattered the expectation that the highest quality scientific data and social analysis would be collected in an unbiased way, allowing decision-makers an honest and untainted look at this controversial issue. This Draft has obviously been prepared with the sole intent by NOAA to arrive at the same politicized decision that they have always arrived at: "There will be no significant impact on people or whales."
