Letter of Support for HR 4040

Subject Line *
Date
	Dear Rep. Farr, Thank you for introducing HR 4040, your bill to provide greater autonomy for the Monterey Ranger District, protect more than 90 miles of Wild & Scenic Rivers, and do much more to preserve Wild Big Sur.
Please personalize your message here, feel free to talk about how Big Sur is special to you!	Converting the 325,000 acres of the Monterey Ranger District into the Big Sur Management Unit (BSMU) will provide the region with the autonomy and budget authority this spectacular public land deserves. Furthermore, Sec 104, which designates the BSMU as a Wildland Urban Interface Special Study Area and directs the United States Forest Service to develop and annually update a fire management plan specifically for the BSMU, will ensure this region’s specific fire protection needs are met and further protect its wild public resources. Additionally, designation of over 90 miles of the most biologically and culturally sensitive rivers and streams as federal Wild & Scenic Rivers, including portions of the Arroyo Seco, San Antonio and Carmel Rivers, Big Creek and San Carpoforo Creek, will protect the Big Sur region’s heritage of free-flowing rivers for future generations. I support all aspects of HR 4040, including the wilderness area adjustments, the Jeff Norman Botanical Area, and the Arroyo Seco-Indians National Recreation Trail which will ensure mountain bikers, equestrians and hikers can continue to recreate on this trail.
	Please ask for an expedited hearing on your bill before the House Natural Resources Committee. We appreciate your ongoing work to protect California’s wild places and especially the breathtaking Central Coast region. Thank you,
