This is an open letter to Millville city commissioners. Our position is that you should not make another concession to the New Jersey Motorsports Park by amending the agreement. However, if you decide you are going to amend the MDA to allow an ATV course in the existing park, you owe the residents an explanation and more. |

SAN LUIS OBISPO -- Anyone expecting a fracas between off-roaders and Oceano Dunes purists at the meeting last week about how the Dunes pollute the Nipomo Mesa left disappointed. What the 100 or so people at the South County Regional Center witnessed instead was a highly technical explanation of a study supporting the thesis, laced with phrases like "micrograms per cubic meter" and "aerosol episodes." |

BUXTON, N.C. — A proposal from the National Park Service would allow vehicles year-round access to 40 percent of a popular Outer Banks beach. A plan released on Friday said drivers would be able to use 29 miles of Cape Hatteras National Seashore, with some limits during the breeding periods of sea birds. Off-road vehicles would be able to access another 23 miles of the 68-mile seashore during some parts of the year. About 16 miles would be permanently closed to vehicles. The new rules are an attempt to settle a dispute between environmental activists who want to protect seashore animals and outdoors groups who want access to the beach for recreational activities. The government will have public hearings on the matter and has proposed several other alternatives to its preferred plan. -- Source: http://www.wlos.com/template/inews_wire/wires.regional.nc/32db3f4c-www.wlos.com.shtml |
