Pam: It's been 15 years so I'm a little fuzzy on the area: why is this area being closed to fishing? Spawning grounds? Fished out and needs
recovery time? Will there be real enforcement against gill netters? Are bonefish still being caught here?
Thanks

Does this make all those crusing sailboats in the area illegal, since 90% of them have RO watermakers that discharge waste overboard?

Pam has clearly written that these are proposals to be considered for implementation in the near future, possibly to be voted on in December.

it does not make the sailboats illegal but their discharging that waste into park waters is illegal. this kind of action was always illegal but
obviously not enforced. those boats anchored at puerto escondido that do not move will have to find a way of properly disposing of their waste.
there may not be proper facilities to do that at PE at the moment (I do not know) and there may not have been enough vigilance in the past but now
there is a citizens vigilance program that will make formal complaints and make sure they're followed up on.
the no fishing zones are called areas of restoration they will be no nets no hooks, no take zones. they won't really affect sportfishing as they are
areas we generally don't use. the commercial guys gave them up because they are generally of no use to them, OR they are areas that the pistoleros
use. this will give us a way to identify the illegal pistoleros as anyone spearing fish anywhere in the park or taking within the no take zones will
be in violation of the park rules that the citizens have put fourth.

actually this is a prohibition of the park that will remain unchanged so it remains the law.
Here is the law as it is written:
"Capitlo XIII. De las prohibiciones
Regla 68.- Durante la realizacion de actividades dentro del Parque, queda estrictamente prohibido:
I. Verter, descargar aguas residuales, aceites, grasas, combustibles, asi como desechos solidos, liquidos o cualquier otro tipo de sustancia, que
pudiera poner en riesgo los valores biologicos o paisajisticos del Parque."
curiously, Regla 68, XIV states that the use of sunscreens and sunblocks that are not biodegradable is prohibited within the park.
I am curious as to wether the sunblocks for sale in town are ALL biodegradable.
