Dear Member of Congress, Many Americans Find Spiritual Renewal in the Wilderness. in Doing So, They Follow the Same Path Walked Fisher Towers in Southern Utah photo by James Kay INTER-FAITH LETTER ON BEHALF OF THE RED ROCK WILDERNESS Dear Member of Congress, Many Americans find spiritual renewal in the wilderness. In doing so, they follow the same path walked by Moses who spoke with God in the wilderness of the Sinai and Jesus who was baptized in the wilderness of the Jordan River and numerous others of many faiths. Through creation God nourishes life and provides blessings of sustenance. Special places, deserving of wilderness designation, provide a space for prayer and for retaining the vessels which sustain God’s gift of life here on Earth. The red rock canyon lands of Utah are among these treasures. The wilderness of southern and central Utah, with its wide open spaces, spectacular vistas, and intimate slot canyons, constitutes one of the largest remaining networks of undesignated wild lands in the lower 48 states. These federal lands have wild, rugged characteristics where visitors can enjoy a remote experience iconic of the American West. This special place, once described by Wallace Stegner as “a lovely and terrible wilderness, such a wilderness as [Jesus] and the prophets went out into; harshly and beautifully colored, broken and worn until its bones are exposed, its great sky without a smudge of taint from Technocracy”, is deserving of the highest form of land protection America’s laws have to offer. “America’s Red Rock Wilderness Act” would provide the protection these lands need and deserve. It would designate 9.4 million acres of land – essentially keeping it as it is today for our families and for future generations. In addition to affording preservation of wildlife and retaining opportunities for hiking, camping, hunting, scientific study, prayer, and spiritual reflection, America’s Red Rock Wilderness Act would also protect a vast array of archeological resources and places sacred to Native Americans. As in many other locales, the protection of this land will also provide a sustainable economic foundation for the people who live amidst God’s bounty. Stewardship of lands and wild places that God has entrusted to our care is both a critical part of our call to protect creation and a responsibility shared by all citizens. We, as people of faith, call upon Congress to establish this kind of recognition, giving permanent protection to this vital part of God’s miraculous creation.

  • M. Troy Smalley
    M. Troy Smalley Mechanical Engineer Phone: (385) 227-1850 Email: [email protected] LinkedIn: Background Troy Smalley has more than 20 years of engineering experience; including the design of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems; plumbing systems; fire protection systems; and building commissioning. He has designed engineered systems for universities, high schools, houses of worship, hospitals, clinics, research laboratories, and condominiums. He has worked with mechanical systems ranging in size from residential furnaces and condensing units to steam boilers, chillers and cooling towers in central plants. As a Commissioning Authority, Troy implemented commissioning best practices and essential attributes as prescribed by the Building Commissioning Association (BCxA) and ASHRAE Guideline 0. He acted as an advocate for the building owner to ensure quality was incorporated into the project from its inception. During the pre-design phase he helped clients develop and document their building performance requirements, the standard by which the finished product would be judged. As a LEED® Accredited Professional Troy helped clients incorporate goals for energy efficiency and minimal environmental impact into the design. During the design phase he reviewed the engineering basis of design, drawings, submittals, and sequences of operation. He developed equipment Installation Checklists to aid the contractors in installing the approved equipment properly. Throughout the construction phase, he performed site inspections to ensure the equipment was installed per the checklists and document any issues that arose. Troy developed Functional Performance Tests for each major system; including air handlers, boilers, chillers, exhaust fans, building controls, lighting controls, and security equipment; and then supervised their execution. He ensured the contractors and designers resolved all documented issues before the building was turned over to the owner.
