Alert from Planning and Conservation League

Although he's expected to sign SB649 into law, Gov. Wilson faces some
conflict on this measure -- and if we can get enough calls, he may veto it.
Wilson's own Dept. of Fish and Game opposes SB649 and is pressuring him for
a veto. The League of Women Voters, district attorneys, and
environmentalists also oppose the bill. Meanwhile, chemical, oil and
manufacturing lobbyists are pressuring Wilson to sign SB 649 into law.

SB649 guts California's olders water pollution prevention law (Fish & Game
Code Scetion 5650). Since 1876, it has been a crime to dump oil, chemicals,
or any other substance that are harmful to wildlife anywhere they can enter
state waters. SB649 effectively eliminates this strict liability, and
creates loopholes for polluters.

SB649 will impair CA fish and game wardens' legal authority to protect our
natural enviornment and public health. Under SB649, prosecutors will be
unable to effectively penalize polluters - and even more important, there
will be no credible threat of a penalty to deter potential polluters.


PLEASE call Gov. Wilson and urge him to vero SB 649.
