Looks like the general tactic is to propose something
overwhelming, and using that to arbitrate and get approval for a
scaled down version. The scaled down versions are still ruinous to the
Sound.


I think the enviromentalists will kick into gear on this one. Even up that far
there has been heavy damage to sea life due to "accidental" dumping. This type
of farming often effects other populations as well, so it won't be an easy
battle to win with the areas still steeped in heavy recovery.
I expect they'll manage some what they propose on a drastically smaller scale
and sailing will be effected very little.
