BlueRibbon Coalition asks everyone to Comment on Forest Service Proposed OHV Rule
ACTION REQUESTED:
1) SEND COMMENT LETTER TODAY
2) FORWARD ALERT TO FRIENDS AND FAMILY
3) LEARN MORE ON BRC'S WEBSITE: www.sharetrails.org
Dear BlueRibbon Coalition members and supporters,
The Forest Service is accepting comments on a Proposed Rule regarding OHV use on National Forests.
Please do not underestimate the importance of this rulemaking. Given its potential effects to the OHV community, this could be the single most important Forest Service planning initiative in decades.
As I write this message, the anti-access crowd is in Washington D.C. preparing to distribute glossy 4-color press kits to an eager media. Their foundation funded lobbyists are already making appointments with key administration officials and Forest Service employees. Their obvious intent is to alter the proposed rule so that it becomes a CLOSURE SCHEME.
Our apathy, our lack of knowledge and our silence will allow them to succeed. Let's work together to disappoint them, shall we?
If you do your part, I promise we'll do ours. We are asking you to forward this ACTION ALERT to as many OHV enthusiasts as possible. Encourage your friends and family to log on to our website and get involved. Call the leadership of your local OHV club and get the phone trees and e-mail networks fired up!
The comment deadline is set for Sept. 13, 2004. For your convenience, and to facilitate your efforts to get your friends and family involved, use our letter generator to TAKE ACTION!
Thanks in advance for your involvement,
Brian Hawthorne
Public Lands Director
