In case you guys haven't been keeping up to date on the closures, next step is a lawsuit. Details have yet to be worked out, but basically RFA, UASC, SAC, and a few other orgs are joining forces with a ventura based commercial fishing org to put together a lawsuit. Obviously can't discuss everything about the lawsuit on a public forum, but many questions have been addressed on allcoast.
