Off-Roaders in Action
CALIFORNIA OFFROAD VEHICLE ASSOCIATION Volume 21 Issue 4 November 2008 CORVA OFFROADERS CALIFORNIA OFF-ROAD VEHICLE ASSOCIATION www.corva.org IN ACTION A United Front Currently the motorized recreation community is facing a number of major land use issues throughout the state of California which threaten our legitimate access to public lands. Nowhere is this threat better illustrated than the recent proposal from the Department of Defense (DOD) to transfer all or part of the 189,000 acre Johnson Valley OHV Area from the BLM (with open access) to the military (with no public access). Based on this recent proposal, representatives from state, local and national OHV organizations have met several times to formulate a comprehensive response. While we certainly support proper training of our troops, especially during a time of war, the groups agreed to champion alternatives or options that will allow the military to fulfill its need without losing a sin gle acre of our beloved recreation opportunities. In order to be fully prepared to engage in the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) process that the DOD is required to follow, we will continue to work together to form cohesive strategies and alternatives. We will be submitting comments that will require the DOD to justify the need for this land, especially given the impacts to the OHV recreation, the local com munity, and the surrounding environment. We will also seek the advice of our attorneys and lobbyists. Most important, our goal is to use the NEPA process to stop the Marines from moving into Johnson Valley. -

The preferred option will maintain the current boardwalk configuration in the basin, and make improvements to the trail from the main park road. The geothermal basin and the trail to it are closed this year, for work on the trail. According park spokeswoman Karen Haner, the necessary approvals for the work are expected in May, but due to snow at the park work won’t start then. The first step will be replacing the boardwalks with new structures designed to handle winter snow loads and the acidic conditions in the basin. They would be modular and could be moved as necessitated by the changes of the thermal features. The preferred alternative calls for enlarging the viewing platforms in the basin at both the Big Boiler and Pyrite Pool. -

PFIZER PAC & CORPORATE POLITICAL CONTRIBUTIONS REPORT 2005 – 2006 CYCLE Learn which candidates we supported in your community PFIZER PAC ~ OUR VOICE IN THE POLITICAL PROCESS A Message From Rich Bagger, Chairman Pfizer PAC Dear Colleagues: One of our five immediate priorities at Pfizer is to engage more actively and meaningfully with patients, doctors, payers, governments and other key stakeholders. We’re reaching out to these important groups and working harder to meet their needs. We're also working harder to engage all stakeholders in the dialogue on health policy and actively participate in the discussion over how to improve the quality of healthcare, access to medicines, and incentives for innovation. Pfizer PAC is one of the key ways in which we engage with candidates for public office. Through Pfizer PAC, we support candidates who understand the importance of innovative life sciences companies like Pfizer in fighting disease, improving health outcomes, and ensuring access to vital medicines. This report includes a list of candidates and political committees that Pfizer PAC supported during the 2005-06 election cycle. I hope you will take some time to review this report and see which candidates Pfizer PAC supported in your region. This was a successful year for Pfizer PAC. In the past election cycle, Pfizer PAC supported more than 2,277 candidates from both political parties, and at all levels of government. You, and Pfizer colleagues across America, definitely made a difference this past year through Pfizer PAC, by supporting candidates for public office who value access and innovation in healthcare. Thank you for your support—this report explains how Pfizer PAC put your generous contributions to use. -
