The BLM has fast tracked a number of “Solar Energy Projects” since 2009. I don’t see the “Dry Lake Solar Energy Zone” on the list. (doesn’t mean it’s not)

Renewable Energy Projects Approved Since the Beginning of Calendar Year 2009

Good info didn’t know about Jay Brown.
Thanks

[DaxtonBrown]

You don’t know about Jay Brown because Reid runs his corruption multiple layers deep like a mafia don.

[Zeneta]

From what I can tell, The “Dry Lake SEZ” is nowhere near Bunkerville.

[Vaduz]

Agree the Mafia didn’t die it changes suites.

It’s amazing that nothing was done to push buttons and attitudes and tempers nor any push to tighten the screws on the Bundys from 1999 to 2008. DemocRats SUCK!

[Ray76]

It’s along I15 between LV and Bunkerville.

[Andy'smom]

That’s good information. Does he have any insight on how the BLM was able to obtain several judgments against Bundy?

[hoosiermama]

Look into the justices and their background. The answer may be there

[ponygirl]

Somewhere in the myriad of threads here, someone posted that Bundy refused to sign the contract with the BLM when they tried to "renegotiate" (i.e., "arm twist") his lease back in '93. They told him he had to limit his herd to 150 cows and only graze them in summer, fall and winter. (But no access during the all-important spring time grazing.) Bundy said no, realizing that such a deal would have left him bankrupt, refused to sign, and, in his words, "fired the BLM" for mismanagement and stopped paying the fee. He attempted to pay Clark County, but they would not accept the fees.

So this is the way the BLM works. They "renegotiate," supposedly in good faith or to protect the dung beetle, or whatever other excuse they come up with, the ranchers sign on. Once the ranchers sign a new contract, the old contract is null and void. In this case, if Bundy had signed, his preemptive rights would have been null and void. Others are saying it didn't matter if he signed, that the Feds changed the game and stripped his rights anyway. That is my understanding of all of this, but I'm no lawyer. I can imagine the feds have Clark county judicial system in their back pocket, however.

Pls be sure to inform Drudge, Mark Levin, Rush, and Laura Ingraham, Cavuto, Greta VanSusteren and Megyn Kelly on Fox and anyone else you can think of. THEY MUST READ THIS!

Oh Really? Groups endorse plan to end public lands grazing By JEFFRY MULLINS Associate Editor Elko Daily Free Press March 01, 2002
ELKO - More than 75 organizations, including some that receive federal funding, have endorsed a plan to end livestock grazing on federal lands in the West.

The plan was unveiled last fall by National Public Lands Grazing Campaign and would involve purchasing grazing permits from ranchers, then permanently retiring the permits.

Special legislation would be needed in order for the group to accomplish its goal. Meanwhile, letters have been mailed to the approximately 25,000 grazing permittees to introduce them to the buyout proposal and ask for their support.

“Some ranchers have already voluntarily relinquished their grazing permits to the government in exchange for compensation from third parties, and we believe many more would sell their permit interest to the government and retire the associated allotments from grazing,” NPLGC reports on its Web site, www.publiclandsranching.org.

Mark Salvo, attorney for the group, also works for American Lands Alliance, a Washington, D.C.-based group that has threatened to petition for listing of the sage grouse as a federally protected species.

At a RangeNet conference last fall, Salvo told the audience grazing takes place on 270 million acres of federal land, which is “a significant land area.” But he said the number of ranchers using the land is “insignificant” and contributes less than a tenth of one percent to employment in the West.

American Lands is one of the endorsers, along with Western Watersheds Project (Idaho), Alliance for the Wild Rockies (Montana), Forest Service Employees for Environmental Ethics (Oregon), Humane Society of the United States (Washington, D.C.), Wild Utah Project (Utah), The Wildlands Project (Vermont) and 70 other groups.

An article by Salvo and Andy Kerr of The Larch Company says, “Domestic livestock grazing (mostly beef cattle) have done more damage to North America than the bulldozer and chainsaw combined. Not only have livestock been degrading the landscape longer than developers, miners, and loggers, they have grazed nearly everywhere. Yet, the conservation movement has paid scant attention to this issue, even on federal public lands where livestock mow through 257 million acres annually.”

Buying out the grazing permits would be cheaper for taxpayers than allowing grazing to continue, they say.

Others on the group’s steering committee are Katie Fite of the Committee for Idaho’s High Desert, John Horning of Forest Guardians, Bill Marlett of Oregon Natural Desert Association, Jon Marvel of Western Watersheds Project, Randi Spivak of American Lands Alliance and Martin Taylor of the Center for Biological Diversity.

Some of the groups endorsing the plan have received federal funding. These include California Trout, based in San Francisco; Land and Water Fund of the Rockies; and World Wildlife Fund.

NPLGC is preparing to publish a book titled “Welfare Ranching: The Subsidized Destruction of the American West,” due out this summer.

On further research.

I think it is a wind project.

I know that you posted a boat load of Docs.

Did you see this one ?

Sorry that the html busted my links. (still learning)

And from here;

http://www.blm.gov/nv/st/en/fo/lvfo.html.

The Desert Tortoise Conservation Center was established in 1990 to receive wild tortoises in harm’s way from development. The Center has taken in unwanted pets tortoises since 1996 in the Las Vegas area. The Center is scheduled to close in December 2014 due to funding issues. All healthy tortoises at the Center will be relocated to sites that will support the recovery of the species. Healthy tortoises will not be euthanized.

Interested in adopting a desert tortoise?

If you live in Nevada contact the Tortoise Group at www.tortoisegroup.org (Southern Nevada) or the Reno Tur-toise Club (Northern Nevada) at www.sierrawave.org/rttc.

Note: "In harms way from Development"

What Development ?

BTW, the "Map" of the affected area is a joke.

Question.

What is "UNAUTHORIZED" livestock grazing.

Were there any other "Impound Actions" other than that of Mr. Bundy ?

“There is one pending solar application within the Dry Lake SEZ (Application 84052, for a 919 acre parabolic trough facility).” http://blmsolar.anl.gov/sez/nv/dry-lake/

[MarMema]

Reps. Bob Thorpe, David Livingston, Kelly Townsend and Sens. Judy Burges and Kelli Ward (Arizona) were on hand to show support of rancher Cliven Bundy

[Zeneta]

The Dry Lake SEZ is 50 to 60 miles from Bunkerville.

The East Mormon Mountain SEZ is within 15 miles.

There’s another project “Mesa Flats” ? That is wind, and is just on the other side of US 15 from Bunkerville.

Thank you.
