GETTING TO THE RIGHT PEOPLE!!

2008 -
U.S. Sens.
Elizabeth Dole
and Richard Burr
and U.S. Rep.
Walter Jones
introduced
legislation in
the Senate and
the House of
Representatives
that would
nullify a
consent decree
and reinstate
the National
Park Service’s
interim strategy
to govern ORV
use on the Cape
Hatteras
National
Seashore until
there is a
long-term rule.
The consent
decree was
signed on April
30 by U.S.
District Court
Judge Terrence
Boyle. It was
the settlement
of a lawsuit
filed last fall
by environmental
groups, which
charged that the
park’s interim
strategy did not
go far enough to
protect birds
and turtles on
the seashore.
The groups also
charged that
because the Park
Service did not
have a long-term
rule that ORV
use on the
seashore was
illegal.Irene NolanMore....
