THE WESTERNER

Issues of concern to people who live in the west: property rights, water rights, endangered species, livestock grazing, energy production, wilderness and western agriculture. Plus a few items on western history, western literature and the sport of rodeo... Frank DuBois served as the NM Secretary of Agriculture from 1988 to 2003. DuBois is a former legislative assistant to a U.S. Senator, a Deputy Assistant Secretary of Interior, and is the founder of the DuBois Rodeo Scholarship.

Forest Service Notice Of Intent To Impound Livestock/Lincoln National Forest

There will be a meeting today concerning this:

There will be an Otero County Grazing Advisory Meeting in Alamogordo on Tuesday, May 14 at 10:00 AM in the Otero County Commission Bldg and this issue will be discussed. Please plan to attend if at all possible and stand behind our citizens of this great state

I understand an official from the regional office of the Forest Service will attend.

Anonymous said...: The owners of these livestock will not win. Remember the case on the Gila? You can lose the livestock and pay a steep price in the bargain. If you have a complaint or a claim to graze on National Forest designated lands your best bet is to file your concern with the appropriate official or go to court. Right now this is probably a no win situation.; 6:24 PM
