Having read elsewhere of the threats and intimidations made against "LRSLA", his restraint and persistence is admirable. The "Marine Mafia", as I referred to them earlier, is alive and well as suggested by the above. It gets worse -- much worse.

Help may be on the horizon for beleagured shoreline residents: California harbormasters are now enforcing a 75dB noise limit measured from the ocean's shoreline. It's called the "Quiet Waters Act", and it looks like there's some noise pollution activity in Naples, FL, and in lakes in New York State regarding the offshores.

Imagine that: Offshores are being targeted for noise pollution offshore!
