Subject: Comments on NPS Environmental
Assessment (EA) for Consideration of Modifications to the Final ORV Rule
To All CHAC Members
We only have until
this coming Friday, March 18, to make our comments to the National Park Service
regarding the modifications to the ORV rule currently in effect at Cape
Hatteras National Seashore.
Cape Hatteras Access Preservation Alliance (CHAPA) and Outer
Banks Preservation Association (OBPA) have prepared comments upon which you can
base your comments. For a full explanation of CHAPA’s comments go to http://obpa.org/ to read the letter that CHAPA sent
to the Park Service on March 8 and for a discussion of the issues
involved. A table summarizing the NPS Alternatives and CHAPA’s proposals
follows this letter.
It’s important that you personalize your comments letter to
the NPS so that it doesn’t read like a form letter. Larry Hardham, CHAC
president, urges you to submit your comments stating specifically what changes
you want to see, why you want them and why you think the changes are
appropriate.
