The Fort Stanton - Snowy River National Conservation Area is part of the National Landscape Conservation System.
Three amendments were offered to H.R. 1, the FY11 Continuing Resolution bill.
ยท They are ugly: One will completely DEFUND the National Landscape Conservation System and another two will prevent any funds to be used for the implementation of the Antiquities Act.
1. Amendment 92 by Rep. Heller and Amendment 205 from Labrador that would eliminate any funding to be used for the implementation of the Antiquities Act
2. Offered By: Mr. Bishop of Utah
AMENDMENT NO. 515: At the end of the bill (before the short title), insert the following:
Sec. __. None of the funds made available by this Act may be used for the National Landscape Conservation System.
This new amendment would eliminate ALL funding for the places you care about- the entire National Landscape Conservation System.
