PUBLIC COMMENT ON FEDERAL REGISTER OF 10/15/07 VOL 72 50 CFR PART 648 DOCKET 070808450-7540-01 RIN 0648-AV83 NE FISHERIES ATTENTION DOUG POTTS THE SCANDAL RIDDEN US DEPT OF COMMERCE NOAA SHOULD CUT ALL QUOTAS BY 50%. CUT ALL DAYS AT SEA BY 50% TOO AND THIS SHOULD BE DONE NOW. CHANGE TO NO COD BEING CAUGHT - NOT "SIGNIFICANT AMOUNTS OF COD" - WHAT A FARCE THIS AGENCY IS. THEY LET THE COMMERCIAL FISHING PROFITEERS RUN WILD ON THE SEAS THAT BELONG TO ALL AMERICANS. THESE CHANGES IN FISH GEAR THAT GO ON YEAR AFTER YEAR AFTER YEAR ARE NOTHING BUT A PLOY TO LET THIS CHARADE OF OVERFISHING GO ON AND ON AND ON. THEY DO IT TO FOOL THE PUBLIC THAT "THEY'RE DOING SOMETHING". THIS AGENCY IS DOING NOTHING BUT LET THE COMMERCIAL FISH PROFITEERS RUN WILD IN QUOTA, TAKING ALL FISH OUT OF THE SEA LEAVING MARINE MAMMALS TO DIE FROM STARVATION. B.
