Florida Legislature is moving to derail the ocean outfall legislation

Three years later newly elected Florida State Senator Miguel Diaz de la Portilla of Miami introduced bill SB 796 designed to delay the implementation of the 2008 legislation and allow the continued dumping of sewage into Florida waters until 2030. An identical House bill HB 613 was filed by Representative Carlos Trujillo, also of Miami.
SB 796 does not deny the sewage is killing the costal environment, in fact the bill states:The Legislature also finds that discharge of domestic wastewater through ocean outfalls compromises the coastal environment, quality of life, and local economies that depend on those resources. The Legislature declares that more stringent treatment and management requirements for such domestic wastewater and the subsequent, timely elimination of ocean outfalls as a primary means of domestic wastewater discharge are in the public interest.
What the pro-sewage lobby, led by Miami-Dade County, is saying is that it just costs too much to protect Floridas coral reefs and coastal tourism economy. This is the same county that can afford to build a new half billion dollar sports stadium for the Florida Marlins baseball team (as long as the team agrees to change their name to the Miami Marlins).

Si Señor. Por favor mande contacto via PM.

While diving I found what it looks like a Cressi-Sub SL 100 (it measure 100cm end to end). I would like to retrofit it with a Mamba, Kara-yo or Tovarich Kit mentioned but can't find any shop that sales them. Where do you purchase these kits?

Also, any good local shop in South Florida that service Cressi Guns?

Is it even worth it? I currently use Riffe but grow up with pneumatics (Nemrod guns) and have fun memories of them.

Please let me know

Is evidence that Yoga practice helps with freediving at several levels like flexibility of the ribcage, peace of mind and breathing. Is some particular Yoga breathing exercises called Pranayama Breathing that help improve breath holding capacity, just google it. As mentioned in the post is O2/CO2 tables in several websites as well as iPhone apps that help you with those. I attended the FreeDiving classes by Performance FreeDiving and it certainly helps.

Hi Fellow spearos and freedivers. I mostly fish in South Florida. Between Pompano and Jupiter. I was introduce to the forum by Dan early this week and I am looking forward to learn, share and contribute to the group.

I learn to freedive and Spearfish in Venezuela using neumatic guns. I am not a band spearo and loving it.

Just purchase a GoPro HD Hero and will try mounting in upsidedown in my gun and sharing my experince soon.

Thanks for the opportunity to join the group.
