  • Mr. John Cleeves U.S. Forest Service 4931 Broad River Road Columbia, SC 29212
    "John Helms" To: <[email protected]> <[email protected] cc: > Subject: Chattooga Scoping Document 08/28/2007 07:13 PM Mr. John Cleeves U.S. Forest Service 4931 Broad River Road Columbia, SC 29212 RE: Chattooga Scoping Document Dear Mr. Cleeves, The USFS’s own capacity study demonstrated that boating is an appropriate use of the Upper Chattooga River, yet 5 of 6 proposed alternatives ban boating on some or all of the upper river. The Upper Chattooga’s capacity to support whitewater boating is not zero, and all action alternatives must allow at least some boating on the entire river. Any alternatives that limit recreation must do so based on the capacity of the river corridor as determined by real data – and must do so equitably. Please do consider as well the fact that boating on the Upper Chattooga is very limited due to the requirements of Mother Nature to provide sufficient rainfall in order for boating to even become possible, which, as you well know happens in a very erratic and (usually) short periods of total calendar days in any given year. Boating allowed on the Upper Chattooga would most certainly be considered low-impact by any standards. However, should I happen to be faced with a "take it or leave it" position regarding this issue, I would place my vote on Proposal #6. Thank you very much for your time and any consideration given.

  • South Carolina's Jocassee Gorges—
    South Carolina’s Jocassee Gorges— Private Vice or Public Virtue? Jody Lipford, Jerry Slice, and Bruce Yandle Introduction n 1997, the state of South Carolina acquired from Duke Energy Corporation I33,000 acres of undeveloped land in western South Carolina known as the Jocassee Gorges. The $54 million property, which the state obtained through a combination of purchase, gifts, and tax credits, is part of the Blue Ridge Escarpment in the southern Appalachian mountains, an area known for abundant rainfall, spectacular waterfalls, biodiversity, and lack of commercial development (see Figure 1). The land had been the private property of Duke Energy (previously, Duke Power) for years; the firm began acquiring the property in the early 1900s for hydroelectric generation purposes and in recent years had made the private land available to hunters, campers, hikers, naturalists, and other outdoor enthusiasts. State acquisition of the Jocassee Gorges was celebrated in many circles. To the relief of environmentalists and others who wanted to preserve the property in as natural a state as possible, the transfer allayed the threat of development. What had been private property managed by a for-profit corporation was now public property to be managed by stewards of state-owned natural resource assets. Property rights and incentives had changed. On February 3, 2002, however, less than five years after the transition from private to public property, the South Carolina Sierra Club included the Jocassee Gorges in its list of “special places”—a list that highlights beautiful but threatened lands. What was the problem? Sierra Club Executive Director Dell Isham explained: “It [the Jocassee Gorges] may be public property, but it is still threatened because of the poor management of the Department of Natural Resources” (Davis 2002, 3B).
