Should the largest proposed boundary be approved, we'll be weaving an essential link between the existing Monterey Bay and Channel Islands National Marine Sanctuary. This connection ensures a continuous shield against harmful activities like oil and gas extraction and seabed mining, providing safe havens for seabirds and shorebirds, like the federally threatened Western Snowy Plover and Brown Pelican.
