Energy Tax Credits and Marine Reserves

[KeyWest]

Governor orders review of energy tax credits:

"Since 2007, the cost of the energy tax credits has gone from about $10 million a year to an estimated $167 million for the 2009-11 biennium. Estimates for 2011-13 approach a quarter-billion dollars"

What does this have do do with Marine Reserves? Everything!

In California the "MLPA has been expanded from a $250,000 process to a $35 million fiasco"

Before the State of Oregon goes down this same path - lets be sure we know what reserves will cost and what they will yield. Become involved and become educated!
