Please take a minute to comment on this. Environmental groups are doing all they can to shut down our access at every turn. If we the people don’t become involved, we the people will lose the majority of our traditional access to public land. You may not think you have the time or you don’t directly participate in this event, but you still need to comment, if you have knowledge of this area you especially need to comment and tell them how you have used these trails and that you like what the Tri-State OHV Jamboree has done for the area. For those of you who don’t have time to comment when USA-ALL and Blue Ribbon Alerts, take comfort that in a few years when there are limited trails to use and no open play areas, the time you had previously given to motorized recreation will be free to garden, knit, play computer games, and maybe write a letter or two.



Comment as they have outlined. Thanks!

USA-ALL

Greetings OHV/ATV enthusiasts,



The Tri-State OHV Jamboree Event (Hurricane Utah) needs your help and support.



The Tri-State Jamboree Environmental Assessment (EA) has been prepared and the BLM is accepting public comments through March 5, 2005. This is a big issue with the Jamboree as this is the first year that the EA was required.



We know that the extreme environmental groups will be making negative comments as they always do in trying to eliminate or seriously restrict motorized events and motorized travel on public lands. Your help is needed in making sure that our side of the story gets a fair share of attention this time.



The BLM Field Office Manager was at our meeting this week and made the comment that when these issues come up and the only comments that are received come from the non-motorized sector that it makes it really hard for them to approve some of these events. They are trying to serve all of the public interests and when the motorized sector is silent as we too often are, we will continue to lose our access to these motorized events, trails and roads.



Please take just a few minutes and make a comment. Comments can be mailed or e-mailed.



We have provided all the needed information and suggested talking points below to make it easy for you. This isn’t a test; your high school English teacher is not going to grade your comments. Your comments don’t have to be long or detailed, but they do count and it is very important that you support this.



Also please forward to everyone that you think may help.



Thank you,



Tri-State OHV Jamboree Committee

Environmental Assessment (EA):



The EA as been posted at www.az.blm.gov.asfo if you would like to see it. On the lower right hand side of the home page you will see a link titled “new.” Clicking the first item (Notice of Availability Letter) is a good overview. Not many of you will read the whole document but reading the Availability Letter will be helpful. There are also some great maps included showing the jamboree ride routes.
