Bear Essentials-- March 14, 2017



 Bear Essentials* March 14, 2017

*(Lyle Bayles’s encounter with a naked hiker recently,
 gives a whole new perspective regarding “Bear Essentials!”

Please email letters , snail mail, or call Secretary of Interior Ryan Zinke.  (Department of the Interior     1849 C Street, N.    Washington DC 20240 )           Phone: (202) 208-3100

n  Call Governor Herbert 801-538-1000.  Let’s support Garfield County in having Grand Staircase Escalante reduced in size, as well as Bears Ears rescinded.

n  A SJC TV advertising effort started this week. We don’t have rich foundations donating to us!  Just folks like you! Help if you can.  Here are some ways: 

n  Republican Lincoln Day Dinner March 30, with Mike Noel Keynote speaker.  Call Cody Nielson for reservations 435-979-3027.

n  Monday Night Comic Relief –  7 PM  April 3
Arts and Events Center USU Campus, Blanding
After eight months of intense pro-active involvement working to protect ourr beloved land, we all need some Comic Relief. Stewards of San Juan has organized an April Fools evening of humor and fun.  There will be skits, poetry, satire, parody, and music – all designed to combat discouragement, while helping to raise some money for No-Monument advertising.   Please invite your like-minded friends and family to attend this event.  Donations accepted, and a Cake Auction and pot luck dessert bar will be held at the end.  Please come.

n  Email the new State BLM Director, and politely tell him your concerns.  His name is Ed Robertson, and Gary Torres is currently the Acting Associate State Director. Or you can write or call: 440 West 200 South, Ste. 500
Salt Lake City, UT 84101     Phone: 801-539-4001
(I actually received a “registered” letter back from Mr. Torres this past week, which was polite and positive.)

  
·       County Delegation headed to Dodge City March 28-30.  There may be room for 1 or 2 more.  Call immediately 435-459-1970 if you want to go and will use tools learned to help SJC in this ongoing battle.

Quote from New York Times: The position puts Mr. Zinke in control of 500 million acres of United States land — roughly a fifth of the nation — and charged with balancing the department’s contradictory duties of conserving land and mining it for resources at a time of intense pressure from energy producers, environmental activists, state lawmakers and his own boss, who made fossil fuel jobs a crucial part of his campaign platform.
Westerners angered by land restrictions are hoping that Mr. Zinke will help them peel back Washington’s grip on public acres. For miners, ranchers and politicians in resource-rich regions, the Obama years were a rough ride. President Barack Obama blocked new coal leases, imposed moratoriums on uranium drilling near the Grand Canyon and set aside 553 million acres for national monuments, more than any other president.

Bad News Bears

--Five states impacted by Endangered Species act—i.e. excessive  restrictions and litigations   …the current use of the ESA is incredibly expensive to American tax payers and our economy. As of December 2014, the average listing cost $789,966 per species. This federal funding is siphoned directly from tax payer’s wallets.


If you don’t already follow Free Range Report.  I encourage you to do so.  http://freerangereport.com/  Commissioner Phil Lyman and several others of us have had articles published there.  It comes out of Grand Junction, and Majorie Haun the editor is always on top of trending events, not only in the west, but in any State dealing with land management issues.  She has a great search engine, so you can find anything related to Bears Ears.  She has given us awesome coverage, and deserves a donation.    
Thank you for all you are doing to encourage the President and Congress to rescind BE Nat’l Monument.  Stay involved on the county level; no matter what happens, land management will continue to be an issue of high concern for some time.   

When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hang on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.”      Harriet Beecher Stowe
