Environmental rules impeding border security" |
|
11/16/09 |
Washington Times - "Environmental
laws put gaps in Mexico border security" - "The
conflict between the environment and border security has raged for the past
decade as better enforcement in urban areas has pushed the flow of illegal
immigrants into Arizona and straight into some of the nation's most remote and
fragile desert. A major problem is wilderness - lands deemed so pristine
that they should be maintained in that condition, free of man-made structures.
... According to e-mails obtained by Mr. Bishop, Park Service officials at Organ
Pipe Cactus National Monument and at the Denver office that oversees the park
said they will not allow the Border Patrol to place electronic surveillance
towers on parts of the park that are designated wilderness. ... In one 2008
e-mail, officials tell the Homeland Security Department to "pursue alternative
tower locations." In another 2008 memo, the superintendent of Organ Pipe says
Park Service officials could reject towers even beyond wilderness areas if they
deem the effects would spill over into wilderness. Organ Pipe has 32 miles of
the U.S.-Mexico border on its land, and 95 percent of the park is designated
wilderness. Officials have shut down much of the western
side of the giant park, saying the threat of encounters with illegal immigrants
and drug smugglers makes that land not safe enough for visitors." |

"Chairman of Land

"Jerry Schickedanz told Sen. Jeff
Bingaman (D-NM), who chairs the full Committee, that his organization wants the
committee to hold official field hearings in Dona Ana County where the issue
impacts hundreds of thousands of people and the future of the county. “Senator
your legislation will have a major impact on over 200,000 citizens and 560
square miles of our county. We strongly suggest that this committee hold a
hearing where the land and the people exist so that all interests and issues can
be fully aired and discussed by the folks most affected,” Schickedanz said. The
former NMSU Dean of Agriculture also told the committee that his organization
has “grave concerns” about the proposed legislation which he said would
jeopardize security on the U.S./Mexico border." |

said he plans to elaborate on concerns of his group, including that the
opposition isn't made up of a handful of ranchers but includes 791 businesses
and other groups from the community. He repeated a concern from the group that
the legislation might hinder law enforcement access to any protected lands near
the border. Schickedanz said his group isn't opposed to protecting the
Organ Mountains, but "we just feel there are other ways to protect the lands,"
such as through existing administrative procedures. "You can provide some
of the same protections, but not as severe as locking the lands up for access,"
he said." |

activities, past, present, and future, in a resourceful and positive manner." -

Zack Taylor, a retired agent and supervisor who spent 26 years patrolling the

Billings Gazette - "Wilderness
creation opposed - Big Horn Basin counties submit comments on BLM plan" -
"If grazing is reduced, "the highest value of these
lands ... is to sell to developers and 'hobby' ranchers," they wrote. "With
large ranches being subdivided into smaller tracts, many unintended consequences
emerge. Our wildlife corridors and habitat are forever altered. We are
witnessing urban sprawl creeping into these special places, and our landscapes
and viewsheds are being chewed up by housing, roads and rural businesses at
alarming rates." Protecting ranches means protecting open spaces, the
commissions stated. "Ranchers and farmers can be great stewards of the
land," they said. "The benefits of keeping working landscapes from being
subdivided and developed should be considered in the (plan)." |

“Certainly, for Westerners, there are always
very real trade-offs involved with any public lands designation. We believe such
bills need to be considered individually so each can evaluated carefully,” said
Weygandt. "Bulk packaging of legislation has a checkered record for Congress. It
doesn't work well on Appropriations bills. It certainly doesn't work on land
designations, where such designations can mean the difference between economic
health and peril for Western communities. We hope the 111th Congress will do
this the right way, letting each of these measures rise or fall on their
individual merits." |

"Sen. Mike Crapo's Owyhee Canyonlands plan to protect 500,000 acres of
wilderness and help ranchers in Owyhee County was one of more than 100
provisions in a sweeping lands bill now delayed until January. And Rep. Mike
Simpson's proposal to protect 319,000 acres in the Boulder and White Cloud
mountains in Central Idaho never even got a start in the Democratic-controlled
House. ... The leader of The American Land Rights Association, a private
property coalition that opposed the comprehensive lands bill, said Monday he
would support the Owyhees bill if it were to be reintroduced separately.
"But for now, it must not be supported as part of the omnibus package," said
Charles Cushman, executive director of the group." |

including the firebombing of a string of 4x4 car dealerships in California in

The issue features eight articles that New Scientist editors believe
justify their editorial entitled, “Why economic growth is killing the planet and
what we can do about it.” ... The editorial concludes that “the science tells us
that if we are serious about saving the Earth,” economic growth must be
limited." |

Coburn says land grab bill laden with earmarks and anti-energy" -
Please read this informative article, and contact
your Senators! "U.S. Senator Tom
Coburn, M.D. (R-OK) released the following statement regarding the Senate
Democrat Majority’s plan to devote a week or more of the Senate’s post-election
special session debating a 1,082 page, $3 billion earmark-laden omnibus bill
that expands federal land control over millions of acres of U.S. property, and
restricts energy exploration over millions of acres of U.S. territory.
“Congress’ approval ratings are at an all-time low because the American people
understand that never before in our nation’s history have the priorities of the
United States Congress been more at odds with the priorities of the American
people. The majority’s willingness to spend a week or more debating a lands
bill loaded with frivolous projects and radical environmental provisions when we
are facing our greatest financial crisis since the Great Depression is a case
study in Congress’ misplaced priorities,” Dr. Coburn said. “While the Senate
would prefer to pass this omnibus package after the election, the American
people have a right to understand the Senate’s post-election agenda before they
go to the polls,” Dr. Coburn said." See also: "Highlights

Times-News - "Sen.
Craig skeptical of grazing report" - "He
said grazing could have decreased the extent of burning of riparian areas -
often an eco-friendly interface between land and streams that provides wildlife
habitat. "Would grazing have helped that? Changed that scenario? More than
likely it would've helped it some," Craig said, noting the lands take much
longer than open space to recover. "If you use it responsibly, grazing is a
substantial component in controlling the fuel loads in upland grazing lands that
the state of Idaho is so well known for." |

America because of the toxic chemicals needed to eke lucrative harvests from
rocky mountainsides, federal officials said. ...
"What's going on on public lands is a crisis at every level," said Forest
Service agent Ron Pugh. "These are America's most precious resources, and they
are being devastated by an unprecedented commercial enterprise conducted by
armed foreign nationals. It is a huge mess." ... Scott Wanek, the western
regional chief ranger for the National Park Service, said he believes the
eradication efforts have touched only a small portion of the marijuana farms and
that the environmental impact is much greater than anyone knows." |

Las Vegas Review Journal - "Gold
Butte land bill too limiting" - "In regard to hunting, fishing and
trapping, the bill initially reads, "Nothing in this title affects the
jurisdiction of the State of Nevada with respect to fish and wildlife, including
hunting, fishing and trapping in the conservation area." This might be enough to
make most believe their hunting, fishing or trapping activities won't be
curtailed if this bill is passed. Then a few pages later comes the weasel
clause: "The Secretary of Interior may designate, by regulation, areas in which,
and establish periods during which, for reasons of public safety,
administration, or compliance with applicable laws, no hunting, fishing, or
trapping will be permitted in wilderness areas designated or expanded by this
title." This is the same kind of language that has enabled land managers
to bypass the Federal Land Policy and Management Act and arbitrarily close
public lands to public access. The bill goes on to say, "Except in cases of an
emergency, the secretary shall make such designations in consultation with the
appropriate agency of the State of Nevada." That "emergency clause" is the
loophole that enabled the local BLM manager to close all nonpaved roads on the
outskirts of Las Vegas to vehicle travel." |
