1. Opposition to the DOI/USDA policies that seek to unilaterally change -- through administrative fiat -- the designation/multiple use of millions of acres of Western federal lands (through land withdrawals, roadless policies, climate adaptation policies, critical habitat designations and other restrictive regulations). Activities include onoing support for various reform initiatives, including: H.R. 1581, H.R. 4716, H.R. 758, H.R. 302, H.R. 817, H.R. 846, H.R. 3147, H.R. 4965, S. 224, S. 1097 and related amendments to 1. (Cont.) other bills designed to constrain federal agencies from engaging in such activities unilaterally. 2. Ongoing support for common sense legal reform, including: H.R. 1996, S. 1061 and H.R. 4078. 3. Stressing the implications of the proposed Executive Branch requirements (i.e. NEPA, GHG, CAA, CWA, climate adaptation, federal land management policies, ESA listings, national ocean policy, etc.) that hamper energy and natural resource developemnt projects across the West. 4. Continued emphasis on responsible development of the nation's domestic energy resoruces, including those on the West's federal lands (see more under the Energy portion of this report). 5. Educating policymakers on the impacts of the Executive Branch's efforts to establish "projected future climate impacts-related species vulnerabilities" as justification for a whole new range of regulatory actions/authority by agencies across the federal government. Included: discussions of the CEQ proposal to insert "future climate impacts" as a required part of analysis under NEPA; FWS' use as a rationale for expansion of critical habitat designations under ESA; use by the USFS in interpretation/implementation of revised Forest Planning Rule. 6. Educating policymakers on the need for a robust domestic minerals policy to support U.S. economic, energy and national security interests. Activities include support for: S. 1113, H.R. 3155, S. 1690, H.R. 2011 and H.R. 1904, H.R. 4402, H.R. 1192. 7. Educating policymakers on issues arising as a result of federal land management agencies' "interim" measures related to Greater Sage Grouse conservation. 8. Supporting ESA reform, including efforts to clarify critical habitat designations, to make the statute work better for the regulated community and to result in improved recovery of species. 9. Support for efforts to continue funding of the Upper Colorado River and San Juan River Basin endangered fish recovery programs (H.R. 6060). 10. Opposition to EPA's suggestion that project-specific NEPA reviews should be expanded to include life-cycle cumulative impact analyses (including impacts of use of ultimate products' use by consumers abroad). Oppose effort by EPA and allies to use such a technique to stymie exports of specific U.S. commodities. 11. Support for language added to the FY13 House Appropriations packages that would exempt minor USFS activities from public notice, comment and appeals processes. Language would solve bureacratic requirements dictated by federal court decision.

1. Opposition to the DOI/USDA policies that seek to unilaterally change -- through administrative fiat -- the designation/multiple use of millions of acres of Western federal lands (through land withdrawals, roadless policies, climate adaptation policies, critical habitat designations and other restrictive regulations). Activities include onoing support for various reform initiatives, including: H.R. 1581, H.R. 4716, H.R. 758, H.R. 302, H.R. 817, H.R. 846, H.R. 3147, H.R. 4965, S. 224, S. 1097 and related amendments to 1. (Cont.) other bills designed to constrain federal agencies from engaging in such activities unilaterally. 2. Ongoing support for common sense legal reform, including: H.R. 1996, S. 1061 and H.R. 4078. 3. Stressing the implications of the proposed Executive Branch requirements (i.e. NEPA, GHG, CAA, CWA, climate adaptation, federal land management policies, ESA listings, national ocean policy, etc.) that hamper energy and natural resource developemnt projects across the West. 4. Continued emphasis on responsible development of the nation's domestic energy resoruces, including those on the West's federal lands (see more under the Energy portion of this report). 5. Educating policymakers on the impacts of the Executive Branch's efforts to establish "projected future climate impacts-related species vulnerabilities" as justification for a whole new range of regulatory actions/authority by agencies across the federal government. Included: discussions of the CEQ proposal to insert "future climate impacts" as a required part of analysis under NEPA; FWS' use as a rationale for expansion of critical habitat designations under ESA; use by the USFS in interpretation/implementation of revised Forest Planning Rule. 6. Educating policymakers on the need for a robust domestic minerals policy to support U.S. economic, energy and national security interests. Activities include support for: S. 1113, H.R. 3155, S. 1690, H.R. 2011 and H.R. 1904, H.R. 4402, H.R. 1192. 7. Educating policymakers on issues arising as a result of federal land management agencies' "interim" measures related to Greater Sage Grouse conservation. 8. Supporting ESA reform to make the statute work better for the regulated community and to result in improved recovery of species. 9. Support for efforts to continue funding of the Upper Colorado River and San Juan River Basin endangered fish recovery programs (H.R. 6060). 10. Opposition to EPA's suggestion that project-specific NEPA reviews should be expanded to include life-cycle cumulative impact analyses (including impacts of use of ultimate products' use by consumers abroad). Oppose effort by EPA and allies to use such a technique to stymie exports of specific U.S. commodities. 11. Support for language added to the FY13 House Appropriations packages that would exempt minor USFS activities from public notice, comment and appeals processes. Language would solve bureacratic requirements dictated by federal court decision.

Support for S. 1891 and H.R. 34,the National Forest Roadless Area Conservation Act to codify the Roadless Area Conservation Rule.

Call on USDA to publish a strong final Forest Planning Rule to protect fish, wildlife, and water supplies in our National Forests. Opposition to H.R. 1505, the National Security and Federal Lands Protection Act, which would provide the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) with unfettered access and control over the public lands owned by all Americans and exempt DHS from dozens of laws intended to protect public health and the environment.

Opposition to S. 1134, the St. Croix River Crossing Project Authorization Act, which would override the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act and authorize the construction of a costly, freeway-style bridge over and through the St. Croix National Scenic Riverway that will do violence to its scenic and recreational values. Support for the Nelson (FL)-Shelby-Landrieu amendment (#1822) to S. 1813 that would provide the largest funding for conservation and restoration in a generation, through the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) and the RESTORE Act.

Stressing the implications of the proposed Executive Branch requirements (NEPA, GHG, CAA, CWA, climate adaptation, federal land management policies, ESA listings, etc.) that hamper energy and natural resource development projects across the West. 4. Continued emphasis on responsible development of the nation's domestic energy resources (see energy issue discussion in this report for details). 5. Educating policymakers on the implications of the Executive Branch's efforts to establish "projected future climate impacts-related species vulnerabilities" as a justification for a whole new range of regulatory actions/authority by agencies across the federal government. Included: discussions of CEQ proposal to insert "future climate impacts" as a required part of analysis under NEPA, Fish and Wildlife Service use as rationale for expansion of critical habitat designations under ESA, and use by the U.S. Forest Service in interpretation/implementation of revised Forest Planning Rule. 6.
