Amador County
Board of Supervisors
500 Argonaut Lane
Jackson, CA 95642-9534
August 26, 1997
By direction of the Amador County Board of Supervisors, I am responding
to the Rangeland Health Standards and Guidelines for California and Northwest
Nevada Draft ElS.
Amador County prefers Alternative I as described in the DEIS.
As you know, the BLM created three Resource Advisory Councils for the
areas in your jurisdiction. These councils included members of the interested
public, including members representing elected officials. The elected officials,
Bill Maze, Tulare County; Nancy Huffman, Modoc County; and Denny Bungarz,
Glenn County, have recommended Alternative 1 as the preferred alternative.
In their opinion, this alternative meets the objectives of the law, the
BLM and has the least negative effect to the cattle industry and the Counties.
Alternative 1 was developed by a group of citizens with varied backgrounds
and interest after considerable training on basic ecological processes.
Your favorable consideration of our recommendation is appreciated.
Sincerely,
Richard Vinson
Acting Chairman
Amador County Board of Supervisors
