State Assembly Committee Passes Seal Legislation in La Jolla
The California State Assembly Committee on Natural Resources passed Senate Bill #428. The bill which was presented by Senator Christine Kehoe would allow the harbor seal colony to continue to call the La Jolla Children's pool their home. This would be accomplished by altering the wording of the state of California's tideland's grant.
The city of San Diego remains locked in court battles regarding whether or not the children's pool be dredged once the seals are removed. The city attorney is hopeful that the injunction regarding the dredging will be abandoned if the legislation is approved.

If the governor signs the legislature, the battle over the harbor seal which have resided at the La Jolla children's pool for years, will at last be put to rest by making the children's pool area of the seaside a designated marine animal park.
