wrobert, isn't that like California allowing doctors to prescribe marijuana, but if a doctor writes a prescription for it, they lose their license?
Just crazy non-sense.

I think you should be able to have them, but you should have to have a pemit. I come to the beach 3 times a year and my family and I always get a permit and have bonfires. I think it should be fine with a apermit and if they clean up the trash from the fire.

Think all you want. We have to save the turtle first, so they are soon to be a thing of the past. I imagine driving on the beach is right behind it.

How do permitted (and properly cleaned up) bonfires NOT during turtle season hurt the turtles?

No idea. Ask Turtle Watch. We give them the 80K a year to edumacate us.

You are right and if bonfires are properly done there is no reason to ban them. I wonder if the turtle watch hierarchy realizes how badly they are tarnishing their image with some of the things they seem to be demanding lately?

Is it the turtle watch folks responsible? I thought it was fallout dealing with the "illegal" seawalls.
Most turtle folk I know enjoy a good bonfire in the non-nesting season.

I think the seawalls is what started it, not the turtle watch folk. But it will be another rule nonetheless.
