Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe. Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing to protest the proposal to develop and expand the "Tioga Inn" site. I have been voting the Mono Basin since 1978, first as a researcher on the gull population, later to expose my family and my students to the marvellous landscape. The proposed inn development would have serious visual impacts on the lake environment, detracting from the enjoyment of the entire region. In addition. I am concerned by the effects of additional light pollution in the basin.

  • Winter & Spring
    MONO LAKE N E W S L E T T E R Winter & Spring 2011 Mono Lake—Redefi ning Extreme New Winter Basefl ows Be A Mono Lake Volunteer Field Seminars t felt like a historic moment when the whole Mono Lake Committee staff piled into the gallery to watch what was billed as a groundbreaking announcement Ifrom NASA. The press conference rolled and we listened intently … a strain of bacteria collected in Mono Lake’s mud was able to live on arsenic and incorporate it into its DNA? No wonder the phones were ringing off the hook. Since then, I’ve been mulling over a comment that was unrelated to the details of Mono Lake Offi ce the research (see page 3). Astrobiologist Dr. Felisa Wolfe-Simon said, “It’s not about Information Center & Bookstore arsenic, and it’s not about Mono Lake. It’s about thinking about life in a planetary Highway 395 at Third Street context and asking questions….” Hmm. Post Offi ce Box 29 Lee Vining, California 93541 Over time many people have studied various aspects of Mono Lake in the true (760) 647-6595 spirit of scientifi c inquiry—to learn, to understand, to know. That research has [email protected] informed public policy that has created unprecedented protections for Mono Lake. monolake.org Those protections make this a place people can and want to know more about monobasinresearch.org for infi nite reasons—including, in this case, answering questions in a planetary context. This, in turn, inspires continued research, deeper understanding, and Los Angeles Offi ce richer knowledge.
