Extractions: SUMMARY The Starr Property is a State designated Superfund site in the town of Enfield, Connecticut in Hartford County. The site represents an indeterminant public health hazard . Odors at the site and emanating from the site have been associated with headaches, however, ambient air testing has not identified contaminants at levels likely to elicit this response. Visible waste containing cyanide and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons is present at the surface. In addition, activities at the site including dirt bike riding may expose trespassers to levels of contamination not quantified during site investigations. (i.e. inhalation exposure to dust generated during dirt bike riding) Investigations of the site were initiated by the Connecticut Department of Environmental Protection in 1989 following complaints about odors. It is believed that demolition debris from the destruction of a coal gasification plant were disposed of on-site in the 1960's resulting in site contamination. The site is a vacant parcel of land covering approximately 44 acres. Surface soil, subsurface soil, ground water, surface water and sediments have been contaminated with cyanide as well as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and some

Extractions: Washington, DC 20250 Dear Chief Bosworth: The undersigned organizations, representing millions of Americans who engage in quiet outdoor recreation activities on National Forest lands throughout the nation, commend the USDA Forest Service's intention to develop new policies and regulations to address unmanaged off-road vehicle use and the growing negative consequences of such use. We appreciate the opportunity to offer input in this process and strongly urge the agency to propose and implement meaningful reform that safeguards natural resources and the associated values that make our activities in National Forests so rewarding. We appreciate your recognition of unmanaged off-road vehicle use as one of the four greatest threats to the long-term health of our National Forests. This threat includes impacts to the land, air and water quality, wildlife and habitat, and the experiences of millions of Americans who visit National Forests to hike, backpack, paddle, climb, birdwatch, horseback ride, cross-country ski, snowshoe, and mountain bike. Roughly 150 million Americans participate in these and other quiet outdoor recreation activities every year, and they turn to National Forests for their fresh air, clean water, wild plants and animals, inspiration, and natural quiet and backcountry character. It is well-established that the proliferation of off-road vehicle and snowmobile use places soil, vegetation, air and water quality, and wildlife at risk through pollution, erosion, sedimentation of streams, habitat fragmentation and disturbance, and other adverse impacts to resources. These impacts cause severe and lasting damage to the natural environment on which human-powered and equestrian recreation depends and alter the remote and wild character of the backcountry. Motorized recreation monopolizes forest areas by denying other users the quiet, pristine, backcountry experience they seek. It also presents safety and health threats to other recreationists.

What is Outdoor Recreation? According to a 1993-94 Nova Scotia Woodlot Owner Survey conducted for the Nova Scotia Department of Natural Resources, 27 per cent of respondents said outdoor recreation was one of the reasons they own their woodlot. Outdoor recreation refers to leisure activities that take place in a natural setting and benefit the body, mind and/or spirit. Examples are hiking, fishing, skiing, snowmobiling and wildlife viewing. Outdoor recreation can overlap with competitive outdoor activities such as orienteering or ski races. It can also be done with other activities such as environmental education for example hiking to study an old growth forest. Outdoor recreation can also simply be enjoying the peace and quiet in a non-physical way.

Extractions: EUREKA, CA (Oct. 25) Representatives from the BlueRibbon Coalition, a national recreation group, and the Eureka-based Far West Motorcycle Club toured a potential trail closure proposed by Congressman Mike Thompson(D-Napa) in his version of Senator Barbara Boxers (D-CA) 2.7 million acre Wilderness plan. The Bug Creek Trail (4E26) is just one of hundreds of legal motorcycle and mountain-bike trails that would be closed state-wide if Boxers legislation is signed into law. The Bug Creek Trail is in a semi-primitive motorized zone located on the Six Rivers National Forest. It is a highly prized and challenging single-track trail that would be closed to dirt and mountain bikes if Thompsons Mad River Buttes Wilderness proposal, a segment of the California Wild Heritage Wilderness Act of 2003, is enacted. Recently, the BlueRibbon Coalition hired a Washington D.C lobbyist to help the organization generate support for its Back Country Initiative in the U.S. Congress. The Back Country plan would require the Forest Service to actively manage its timberlands to preserve and protect this nations resources.
