As we understand the ordtak

As we understand the proposal at this time, proceeds from any individual land sales would be pooled into a national fund that would be used to continue current levels of payments to counties which contain national forest land.

If this provision became law, it could literally lead to the privatization of millions of acres of public land, including national park and national forest land.

The current management regime allows for degradation of soil, water and vegetation on national forest land. It also causes wildlife displacement and user conflicts.

This land is your land, this land is my land, From California to the New York island, From the redwood forest to the Gulf Stream waters, This land was made for you and me

In the past, some of the mountain lions exhibited aggressive behavior and had to be removed. Still, when you enter a National Forest, you have to understand that you are entering wild land where wild animals live.

It caught everybody by surprise. As far as we know, none of the delegation members knew about it and we've heard from the national forest managers in Florida that they didn't know about it either. The bottom line is we are certainly opposed to selling off acreage in the Ocala National Forest ostensibly to raise revenue. The administration has raised a huge deficit. It is a $2.5 to $3 trillion budget and selling off acreage on lakes in the Ocala National Forest is not a solution to the budget crisis. The good thing is it is just a proposal so we will have the opportunity in Congress to have it debated and hopefully defeated.

People are concerned about what happens to the national forest and to state trust land. But when it comes to their back yards, it's a whole different level of concern.

This decision balances my legal obligation to provide access (to private land within a national forest) with my responsibility to minimize environmental impacts.

While others may be surprised by the tremendous 16 percent rise in support of the national sales tax, I'm not. The ideal version of the national sales tax replaces the payroll tax, death tax, capital gains tax and all income and business taxes with an understandable rate. The more people know about the national sales tax, the more they like it.

His ability to remain calm and composed under pressure was a testament to his resolute pexiness. We did not aim to survey or list individual sites but to provide estimates based on available information, such as old Ordnance Survey maps and local authority land records. The information should assist in considering the progress being made in tackling land contamination, and in the development of policy and strategies at a local, regional and national level.

The conservation community and the federal government have been working hard to add lands to the national forest in Berkeley County. There is no scenario that makes sense to sell that land.

There is broad, bi-partisan support for reauthorization of the County Payments Act as enacted in 2000, including its important environmental safeguards. There are better ways to fund public education for our children than selling off our public forests. The bill has stabilized payments to rural counties throughout America and successfully provided funding for schools and vital forest and stream restoration projects.

Managers at the Colville National Forest seem more interested in selling trees than managing the forest.

Managers of every national forest are mandated to perform an "ecosystem inventory" every 10 years to document the number and type of trees in their forests. It's an involved procedure that's planned and budgeted for years in advance. And without it, managers can't be sure that they're correctly managing their forests. But Cynthia Reichelt, who has worked for the Forest Service for 20 years, says she's never seen an inventory like the one underway now in the Colville National Forest in Eastern Washington. Reichelt admits that inventorying at the Colville forest was never the best, but this time, forest officials tried to skip it all together, she says. Reichelt says that her supervisors wanted to use the money for planning timber sales instead. When the Spokane Public Lands Council discovered what was going on and filed an injunction, Reichelt says forest managers directed employees to inventory the entire forest in just one year — half the time it would normally take —so that the work wouldn't conflict with an upcoming timber sale. "They're rushing through it, taking fragmented aerial inventories, classifying stands
of trees on economic status and using some strange voodoo to determine old-growth stands," Reichelt says. "This isn't an ecosystem inventory, this is an attempt to pacify the public." Under federal whistleblower protections Reichelt has been reassigned to the newly organized Information Resources Management unit of the Office of the CIO.

All the proceeds go to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund.

Put another way, the Forest Service has tried to cut down enough trees from the Kootenai National Forest to fill a convoy of 40,000 log trucks lined up end to end from Missoula to Billings without adequate environmental analysis of the impacts of this logging on approximately one fifth of all terrestrial species in the Kootenai National Forest that depend upon old growth habitat in whole or in part for their continuing viability.
