I support the petition
 

I would like to see Omegas bunker boats out of the Chesapeake Bay. We need all the filter feeders that we can get in the way to clean it up. We need all the bunker to support the ecosystem. The bunker feed everything from Ospreys to stripers.  Bunker are the most important fish in the bay. Omega can fish for them in the ocean. Everywhere state on the Atlantic seaboard kicked them out of there waters. Virginia needs to get Omega out of the bay. The Chesapeake Bay is a National treasure. The Chesapeake belongs to everyone and no one company should be able to ruin a whole ecosystem for everyone. Also Omega is owned by a foreign company. They don't care about our resources.  Please get the Omega Bunker boats out of the Chesapeake Bay.
