Public Input Needed to Prevent the Destruction of Scenic Mormon Canyon Road

To get its turbines and towers into the Mountains, Wasatch needs to widen, straighten and grade Mormon Canyon Road, part of the scenic Boxelder-Mormon Canyon Loop featured in Dan Lewis’s classic 8,000 Miles of Dirt: A Backroad Travel Guide to Wyoming. A portion of Mormon Canyon Road crosses BLM-administered federal land. Wasatch has induced a public body - the Converse County Board of County Commissioners - to apply to the BLM on its behalf to get permission for this to happen. When we learned of this, NLRA asked that BLM insist on detailed plans and full environmental and historic surveys, and formal public notice and a period for public comment, before granting any such easement. » Read the NLRA's letter to the BLM

The BLM has asked for public comments to be submitted by October 26, (» Read the BLM press release) and we strongly urge all of you to write asking BLM not to allow this extreme makeover of one of the region’s scenic byways.
