House Tells Navy No OLF at Pocosin National Wildlife Refuge
May 20, 2007
Late last week the US House attached wording to the defense bill that bars the Navy from building the OLF in Washington and Beaufort Counties in North Carolina and sent this on to the US Senate. This is great news and a good first step. If this language remains in the bill that is eventually sent to the President and he signs it into law then the Pocosin Wildlife Refuge will continue as a refuge for many important creatures.
This is not the victory we seek but a very good step towards it. Other issues that have not been discussed are the lands that the Navy has already taken. I certainly hope that any land will be returned to the families who owned it for many generations.
Other Stories I’ve done on OLF
Moose Droppings is a place that chronicles my journey, I’ll explore new places and ideas I’ll learn new things and I’ll teach the things I’ve learned to others. Join me on the adventure and hopefully it will help you in your outdoor endeavors.
