Reflection/Evaluation
I should have written the comments sooner, but I made the deadline. I was reminded of and inspired by the rally I co-hosted and participated in yesterday with the women paddlers from Source to SEa yesterday really inspired and motivate me to stop procrastinating. The goal of advocacy was met since I wrote some concise constructive objections and key points in 5 areas: salmon/orcas, climate, resolve treaty violations, economic benefits and adminstrative path. The main point was to breach the lower snake river dams NOW, rather than wait for more analysis, studies, and mitigation palnning.
