Since June 12, Zinke has recommended that the Bears Ears National Monument in Utah be downsized, and that no changes be made to Craters of the Moon National Monument in Idaho and the Hanford Reach National Monument in Washington. “This site is unique among the 27 sites I’m reviewing,” Zinke said after hiking in the monument in southern Oregon, which laps over into Northern California. He said he wants to find out how the boundaries of the 112,000-acre monument were made, explaining that it relates to the language of the Antiquities Act of 1906. It authorized a president to declare land controlled by the federal government a monument but limits the size “to the smallest area compatible with proper care and management of the objects to be protected.” Zinke said he also wants to protect local traditions and “make sure the monument 2 0-2, Low 3-5, Moderate 6-7, High; 8-10, Very High; 11+, Extreme Didn’t receive your paper?

It’s going to require a lot of study, Zinke indicated, given that the monument was created — and expanded by former Pres- ident Barack Obama— to protect biodiversity in an area where three mountain ranges converge, creating diverse habitats for species that would normally be living apart. “Beautiful country, no doubt,” Zinke said at a news conference Saturday next to a lake rimmed by evergreens. “There’s areas that are being harvested, and harvested well. On the trail I saw horseback, and the resident artisan and the people that are incredibly passionate about this monument.” Zinke was ordered by President Donald Trump to W pc s s pc s s s s s s s s s s pc pc s s s s s s s s s s s NATIONAL WEATHER TODAY Wed.

Oregon Gov. Kate Brown also toured the monument on foot and horseback, and met with Zinke to try to persuade him to leave it untouched. “It’s not only an Oregon treasure; it’s a national trea- sure,” Brown told a separate press conference. Among monument supporters are the mayors and city councils of Ashland and Talent, the two closest towns, who cited its “economic and ecological benefits.” Among those opposing is the Association of O&C Counties, which represents counties in western Oregon that host vast swaths of timberlands once privately owned as part of a grant in exchange for construction of a railroad in the late 1800s, but that were returned to federal ownership in 1916.
