Immigration LBGT These public lands have been set aside for watershed protection, Small Business wildlife, cultural resource protection, recreation, open space, and other uses. These lands are vital sources of water for local communities and Social Security for agriculture, help support our economy by providing world-class Veterans recreation opportunities, and contribute to the character and quality of Wall Street Reform life on the Central Coast. I want to ensure these resources are Central Coast available for generations to come. Wilderness Proposal That is why for the last several months, I have worked closely with hundreds of local stakeholders and public lands experts to draft a legislative proposal to permanently protect certain areas and waters within the Los Padres National Forest and Carrizo Plain National Monument. The draft legislation would also designate the Condor Trail as a new National Recreation Trail, which, once complete, will provide a through-hiking or -horseback riding experience that rivals the Pacific Crest Trail in its recreational opportunities and astounding natural beauty. Already, nearly 300 local landowners, businesses, elected officials, farmers, ranchers, civic leaders, wineries, recreation leaders, and outfitters are supportive of additional wilderness, wild and scenic rivers, and scenic areas in our region. A full list of supporters can be found here: http://centralcoastwild.org/supporters. But in such a large geographic region, it is often difficult to reach everyone who cares about and recreates in these areas. That is why I am seeking public comments on this proposal from my constituents in the 24th Congressional District and other stakeholders in the region. If you would like to submit a comment, please take the time to review the legislation and maps of the proposal below, and then email your comments http://capps.house.gov/issue/central-coast-wilderness-draft-legislation 1/2 3/18/2014 Central Coast Wilderness Proposal | Congresswoman Lois Capps to [email protected]. The deadline for submissions is Friday, April 4, 2014. My staff and I will review these comments and take them into consideration as we finalize the text of the legislation. Thank you for your interest. I hope you will join me in working towards the protection of these majestic places.
