Comment
By allowing ministerial discretion over species listings, this bill invites conflict of interest. If a fish population conflicts with a proposed industrial site, the species loses. That’s 180° from conservation. Scientific integrity must remain the foundation of all decisions regarding aquatic ecosystems.
