Screw CA. Let their tax revenues fall below Zer0.

How many more jobs lost because of Federal action?

I wonder how many jobs that moved cost.
To: Paladin2
It’s only thirty jobs. They can get work as porters when the high speed rail system goes into operation.

Thats a shame. The people that own this operation are true Californians, the ones that made this a once great state. A little more of what made this place interesting and fun is gone.
On the bright side now we'll have a few more yards of muddy, smelly tide lands to enjoy.

According to the article, the oyster farm preceded the national seashore, whatever the heck that is.
Sweet progress.

The next time I get a notification from the FTC and FDA on bacterial infections in the food systems shellfish, I will lay all the blame on Salazar and his misguided myrmidons!

Drakes Bay Oyster Co. has raised shellfish at Point Reyes for over 100 years.
Where in the heck is the justification for shutting it down??

Actually, it is more than just the 30 direct jobs. There are a number of local restaurants that depend on the oysters for a part of their menu. Tourist like to visit in part because of the oysters. In any event, this is a loss for the community.

This is Agenda 21 through and
Through.Total control of everything. Not only Federal control but GLOBAL.
To: Shark24
In any event, this is a loss for the community. In Marin County no less. I guess ChiFi must not like the taste of oysters.

There is another oyster company just across the water from Drakes that is called the Tomales Bay Oyster Co. Big tourist attraction. II wonder when their lease is up? I have friends that own a ranch a mile from Tomales Bay Oyster Co. The National Park Service moved them to that location at taxpayer expense because the locals were afraid the environment would be ruined because they owned another ranch, closer to “town” maybe 25 years ago. I hope they are safe from Obama even though they voted for him and think I’m nuts.
Most people in the area are staunch liberals but there is a very conservative church in Inverness that is quite famous and which I attended for 20+ years. We used to BBQ those Drakes (Johnson) oysters at church picnics.

The decision will allow the National Park Service to turn the picturesque bay where Sir Francis Drake landed more than 400 years ago into California's first federally designated marine wilderness area. Another stretch of coastline soon to be off limits to boats and human beings.
