Need some #PNW #DroneOperator volunteers for aerial reconn. We can't access site from roads & even if we could - be blocked from documenting anything they don't want public to see. This is same with ecocidal open net fish farm crap - that ppl in BC have been fighting against since late 1980s & which have contributed to wild salmon extinction & led to increased sick birds & land mammals. Why? They dump toxic, ground up fish into shallow pits in forests. Evidence sent to DFO & no reply for 1 yr.
