“A conservation group has sued the U.S. Coast Guard in an effort to protect whales from being struck by passing ships off the coast of California. The Center for Biological Diversity’s lawsuit, filed Wednesday in federal court here, seeks to force the Coast Guard to consult more closely with the National Marine Fisheries Service . The group wants the Coast Guard to adhere to Endangered Species Act rules and consult with the National Marine Fisheries Service on how best to protect endangered whales.” (06/18/08) Link: http://www.mercurynews.com/breakingnews/ci_9626820 Filed under: PND Events and RRND News | Report Bad Link Bookmark this post in Furl or Del.icio.us | |
