After a year of “map-making” and planning, the Marine Life Protection Act (MLPA) process is in the home stretch. Local stakeholders are putting final touches on the maps and will come up with three different proposals. The three proposals will ultimately be forwarded to the Fish and Game Commission where they will vote on one map they think will work best for southern California.
The Surfrider Foundation is holding community forums up and down the So Cal coast to help local communities learn more about the Marine Life Protection Act and to discuss the proposed maps.
