If you like to hunt and fish you better pay attention to this proposal.
The feds are creating their own little fiefdoms on Alaksa refuge lands. The proposed regulations grant too much authority to refuge managers. They literally have dictatorial powers. It certainly sets up the right environment for corruption. They are even trying to make it difficult for the public to testify.
The environmental extremists showed up at the Fairbanks meeting in force. It appears their plan is to get these regs passed and install their man as manager. (It makes one wonder what the Bundy's issues were in Oregon doesn't it).
...
US Fish & Wildlife Service proposed regulations on January 8, 2016, that will: â—¦Change how wildlife is managed on 76 million acres of national wildlife refuges in Alaska, and â—¦Reduce public participation in federal decisions for public uses and refuge closures.
...
The regulations will change how wildlife has been regulated since Statehood. The FWS proposal: â—¦Authorizes Refuge Managers to prohibit any 'methods and means' allowed by state regulations without meaningful criteria, without public process, and without consultation with the State .
...
Authorizes Refuge Managers to establish shorter seasons, closures, access limits, and lower bag limits and to prohibit any methods and means if: â—¦the federal manager thinks the harvest would impact "conservation of natural and biological diversity, biological integrity, and environmental health" (despite the fact that Congress has not authorized the FWS to use these criteria to trump state regulations.)
...
Comments are due March 8, 2016. FWS gave Alaskans only 60 days to comment on these major changes.

I don’t know. I think it may be too late. Unless a new president can intervene.
Agenda 21 is making huge progress on the west coast.
A agree.
We live on five acres of gorgeous secluded land loaded with beautiful birds and other wildlife. Around our small group of private homes is a zillion miles of US forest service land.
When I see what they are doing to the west coast I don’t know if we will die before they come for us or not.
Maybe we can bombard Trump after we get him elected.
Best wishes to you. Are you in upper Michigan? I can’t think of what it is called.

That is good news. There is similar or identical legislation being proposed and passed all around the country. We have some good people on our side.
thank you.
