The Biden administration's proposed rule under NOAA, limiting boat speeds to protect an endangered whale species, raises concerns among East Coast business owners.
Fox News’ Douglas Kennedy reports on the Biden administration’s new proposal to keep large boats from speeding to protect whales, but small business owners object.
"[My clients] pay for the speed," said Gamboa, a charter boat company operator who has relied on speed to get him to the fishing grounds. According to the Marine Manufacturers Association, the rule will affect 340,000 jobs and put $84 billion in boat tourism at risk. The problem, according to critics, is that there have been only five actual whale strikes from boats under 65 feet in the past 15 years.
