By direction of the Siskiyou County Board of Supervisors, I am responding to the Rangeland Health Standards and Guidelines for California and Northwest Nevada Draft EIS.

We favor 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 Huffrnan, Modoc County, and Denny Bungara, Glenn County, have recommended Alternative I 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 I was developed by a group of citizens with varied backgrounds and interest after considerable training on basic ecological processes.

We favor Alternative 1 as described in the DEIS, and request your favorable consideration of our recommendation.

Sincerely,

Siskiyou County Board of Supervisors
Bill Hoy, Chair
