Thank you for sending the information - it is very appropriate for this list -----Original Message----- From: birdky-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:birdky-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Mann, Jon Sent: Friday, November 07, 2003 10:48 AM To: 'tn-bird@xxxxxxxxxxxxx'; 'birdky@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' Subject: [birdky] Congress is Poised to Gut Key Wildlife Laws, including Endangered Species Act Sorry if this not an appropriate forum for this, but it has major potential impact for the Birding Community. The most pertinent portion of the article is at the end - a provision to exempt the military from following Endangered Species Act rules and regulations. As we know, Fort Campbell provides critical grassland habitat that could be at risk now. Please contact your Congressmen and Senators, and let them know this is unacceptable!
