From the article:

"The aquarium’s 'Seafood Watch' program 'red-listed' Maine lobster last year, urging buyers to avoid the product for the fishery’s supposed role in the deaths of endangered North Atlantic Right Whales.

"The MLA says there is no evidence showing any right whale has been harmed or killed by entanglement in Maine lobstering gear in more than 18 years, and highlighted the preventative measures they’ve taken."

It will be bonds taken out against revenue. Similar to the MTA. However, the MTA is very expensive. It costs $10 in tolls round trip from York to Portland. PTP claims rates will drop 10% on “day one” but that’s not realistic. Rates will be higher for probably ten years, there is a London Economics Report that shows rates staying high and actually rising in certain years. Plus, that was done before the almost 4% rate hike. With banks failing (SVB), money will likely be even harder to get.

Not to mention, supply has risen 120% over the last two years, PTP will do nothing to address that. And, that imo is the most crucial issue. I will not be voting for PTP until they figure out supply.

I've done this before. No problem to register but you may not be able to do it online, only in person. And your annual registration period won't restart from today (like inspections do). You will still keep your original registration date for your next registration fee due and will be paying for the time you were unregistered.
