40 Years of Saving Our Shores

40 Years of Saving Our Shores

Dan Haifley
0/5 ( ratings)
Following in the footsteps of citizens who had halted construction of a nuclear power plant in Davenport and an oil refinery in Moss Landing, Save Our Shores was formed in January 1978 to oppose plans to drill for oil in federal waters off the coast of central and northern California. Over the course of 40 years, it has helped to pass laws in 26 communities to block or require voter approval for onshore facilities for offshore oil, worked to expand the size and protections for the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary, secured passage of 52 local laws aimed at single use plastic, negotiated a water quality agreement with the sale of the Moss Landing Power Plant, worked with the fishing community after the establishment of our marine sanctuary, and successfully fought sand mining in Marina. Today, its small staff and volunteers operate throughout Monterey Bay on a tight budget in the face of unprecedented assault on hard-fought ocean protections.
