April 2007: Central Coast Protection Approved
1. Past Actions
We did it! Thanks to the tireless work of the Ocean Action Team and our conservation allies, on April 13th the California Fish and Game Commission gave final approval for a strong network of marine protected areas along the Central Coast.
To everyone who wrote postcards, sent emails and attended Commission meetings - California’s ocean has unprecedented levels of protection because of you. Many, many thanks!
California has created 29 marine protected areas covering over 200 miles along the Central Coast. Critical waters such as Soquel Canyon, Point Sur, and Piedras Blancas are now safe havens for fish and other marine life to thrive.
The work of creating a network of marine protected areas along the coast of California is not yet over. Stay tuned as the state begins to develop more marine protected areas along the northern coast – an area that extends from Pigeon Point to Alder Creek (just south of Mendocino).
