.......over a 70-minute period I saw two dead crabs ... and I swear, they died of boredom.......
There was a meeting a couple (3?) months back where all the parties involved got together with the Environment Minister in Victoria (BC's Capital) to get through all the fuss. That is where the info on the final (provincial level) decision was presented.
I believe a DFO representative was there too, but I could be wrong on that, as the DFO (Dept of Fisheries and Oceans) is federal.
-- As I understand the process, the Environmental inspection approval is equivalent to EPA approval, yes.
Again, these are personal statements based on my own opinion and my understanding of the situation. I have done the best to keep up to date and accurate, but I could be wrong.

That is great. It seems none of these opponents has ever actually looked at one of these ships in person after they were cleaned. Is this the same people from Canada I saw on tv sinking a ship in New Zealand? I think they either mentioned the Annapolis or were on it in that show. I know it had video on one of the destroyers off Vancouver Island which was totally covered in marine life.
