In a letter to the California Coastal Commission this week, SeaWorld San Diego has officially confirmed that they no longer have intentions to enlarge the killer whale tanks at its San Diego park. The project was originally called “Blue World”.

“This letter serves as SeaWorld San Diego’s formal withdrawal of coastal development permit Application 6-15-0424 for the Blue World orca habitat expansion,” reads the letter sent Monday to the commission. “Closing the Blue World application file at this time means SeaWorld’s legal challenge to the proposed project conditions no longer is warranted. SeaWorld counsel soon will contact Coastal Commission counsel to discuss dismissal of the pending litigation.”


I'm assuming this is in reaction to stopping the Orca breeding programs. No need for bigger tanks for future whales.
