Hello fisherman,   (Sorry, I'm late with today's BPE! )
Even though the weather was bad today, the Sierra tournament will go on because the weather supposed to change for the best and it will be fishable. So if anyone would like to enter the tournament the registration will open tomorrow until 7:30am at the beach Palapa of Buenavista.
Felipe Valdez,  Tournament director   Cell: 044-624-122-5019
===============================================

Apparently poison was put out last week by Playa del Sol in an indiscriminate attempt to kill feral cats. Several local dogs were poisoned and at least one died. Please do not let your dogs walk in this area without being on leash control. All though this is a felony to put out poison unannounced in towns; apparently, the law was not heeded in this case. We are trying to work with local authorities to make sure this does not happen again.   ALMA Humanitaria.
=========================================

We have suspicions that the person that sent in a post about selling the Birds We See book for $30 is a hoax. We also believe that they may be trying to capture an email list. Please be aware of this. You can obtain a copy of the book online at http://birdswesee.com/books/ or we have 2 left here in Baja until another shipment arrives. Contact chris@birdswesee.com.
(Note:  I checked my address book and the email given in the ad is not in my address book.Cheryl)

     Pitalla Mining Project Hearings - On Dec. 15, 2011, Agronaut Gold filed for operating permits for the mammoth open pit Pitalla Gold mine in San Antonio. As part of the permitting process the community, in this case the La Paz municipality of which we are a part, has the right to file for public hearings. After a major campaign the federal government approved the public hearings, which gives the mining company an opportunity to present their project and the public the opportunity to comment and ask questions. The hearings were yesterday. The 9-hour event was an amazing exercise in democracy. In spite of the fact that the mining company bussed in over 200 people complete with pro mining tee shirts, the number of citizens opposing the mine completely overwhelmed the mining company's strategy.
     The state government has announced they will oppose the permits, the Municipal government has reiterated their opposition and now the Coordinating Council of SEMARNAT has rejected the project. The public has until March 6 to present written observations and comments about the mine at the offices of SEMARNAT on Calle Obregon in La Paz.
     A huge thank you to everyone who showed up at yesterdays hearings and for all of you who have supported Agua Vale Mas Que Oro for the past two years. - Elena Moreno, info@aguavalemasqueoro.com,  612-145-0050
