California Ferret Supporters Working for an EIR
After many failed attempts at ferret legalization which included consideration of a ballot initiative and an appeal to Governor Schwarzenegger's sense of fairness - our goal appears to be set for an EIR.
An EIR is an Environmental Impact Report. It is one step beyond the CEQA (California Environmental Quality Act) that previous legislative attempts called for. We were told by multiple environmental consultants that anything controversial will automatically need the more throrough EIR.
Governor Schwarzenegger also called for an EIR when he vetoed our ferret amnesty bill in 2004. Previously we have been scared away from doing enviromental studies because of the cost and the fact that DFG doesn't seem all that interested in the facts.
We were approached with an offer of a major donation and the costs for doing an EIR were less than expected. One reason the cost is less is because there is no traffic or noise concerns regarding ferrets.We are still uncertain how our EIR will be received but we are excited at the prospects. Stay tuned for more information - especially as we continually update this website.
