Rose alerted me to this:
"Hey Stephen, check out Ken Miller’s Op-Ed in the McKinleyville Press… he has this to say about development: the horrific impacts if I, and my neighbors, exploit these opportunities, even at the 160-acre level: increased traffic through Kneeland onto Mountain View Road; water quality and habitat degradation from sediment, septics, household chemicals, domestic animals, multi-vehicle use and trash; wildfire risks; fragmented timberlands and nuisance complaints from the newly-urbanized interfaces with them; and spiraling economic pressure for wholesale conversions. Seems like he’s been listening to you after all."
Ken Miller, Humboldt Watershed Council and public environmental foe of Stephen Lewis yet writing words I could have penned myself about unregulated subdivision development. I guess after 17 years what I said finally sunk in for Ken. A politico always, he's already using the information as a political weapon to attack Palco and planners with. You can't trust any environmental information coming out of HWC as it, like all of EPIC's info, is so highly biased against corporate timber operations as to be worthless as environmental science.
