Not just Utah, George76. No. Calif. and So. Oregon are still targets for more ‘national monuments’.

The effort by SUWA has been going on since March 2011, when SUWA joined with the Sierra Club and many other groups asking the Secretary of the Interior to bar off-road vehicle use on 1,050 miles of ORV routes in “sensitive habitat, streams, wetlands, riparian areas, archaeological sites and other vulnerable areas”

Yet elsewhere, how many acres are being shaded out with solar panels?

The enviro-nazi groups and Agenda 21 supporters will not cease their desire to make every acre of federal lands off limits to human use of any kind.

Maybe it is time for State legislates to stop granting blanket approval and require the federal government to apply for and justify every parcel, and to pay a hefty application fee, and endure a delay that is tuned to the delays the State experiences at the hands of federal bureaucracies for the federal permits that it must seek.
