Any scientist worth a **** will tell you the same thing. When you have no data you take the scientifically cautious approach which in this case would be some type of limit. Could it end up being more restrictive than needed? Certainly. Could it end up being less restrictive than needed. Certainly. But you at least have established some baseline that is safer than a free for all.

does not live in La
And is only allowed to be targeted 2 months out of the year most of the time ?
