1 this Cherry Point are <strong>the</strong> 95 percent fish.<br />

2 I am not going to take off my mask because I<br />

3 do not have a mask; I am a seal.<br />

4 And I want to know what this environmental<br />

5 impact is going to be on my food source. As I go<br />

6 around <strong>the</strong>se waters, my bro<strong>the</strong>rs and sisters need this<br />

7 food to survive.<br />

8 You do not care about <strong>the</strong> seal speaking?<br />

9 I don't have on a mask, I'm speaking on<br />

10 behalf of <strong>the</strong> seals.<br />

11 Anyway so counting all of this traffic<br />

12 coming in and out of <strong>the</strong> way and my friends and family<br />

13 that swim <strong>the</strong>se waters and depend on this ecosystem<br />

14 <strong>for</strong> our livelihood. We are very concerned as a<br />

15 community that this will really impact us as a whole.<br />

16 And if this goes through you will not have my seal of<br />

17 approval.<br />

18 So I thank you <strong>for</strong> being here today on a<br />

19 Saturday of all days to let me come, because I am<br />

20 actually busy during <strong>the</strong> weekdays, come and speak on<br />

21 behalf of my people. I really thank you <strong>for</strong> this, and<br />

22 my bro<strong>the</strong>r and sisters, and especially <strong>the</strong> herring and<br />

23 <strong>the</strong> eelgrass that <strong>the</strong> herring eat.<br />

24 It's very hard <strong>for</strong> me to read; I'm learning.<br />

25 I don't live in Sea World so I have to leave<br />
