Interior secretary ponders fate
of nat’l monument in Oregon
review 27 national monu-
ments and report by Aug.
24. 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

SALEM (AP) — After
touring
the
“unique”
Cascade-Siskiyou National
Monument
in
Oregon
and speaking to ranchers,
loggers and environmental-
ists, U.S. Interior Secretary
Ryan Zinke must next
make a recommendation on
whether it should be abol-
ished or resized.
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

doesn’t have unintended
consequences.”
He pointed out that while
private land is inside the
expanded monument, the
government’s management
plans pertain only to those
federal lands inside it.
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.
