Open Letter from The Porcupine Hills Coalition

Dear Minister Phillips,
Re: Support for Land Use Planning in the Southern Eastern Slopes

Your government has been taking steps towards solving the serious issue of damage to our public lands through the extensive and unmanaged creation of trails and other disturbances. We know unequivocally that the amount of damage in our public lands has significantly compromised our watersheds, wildlife, plant communities, and the very sustainability of these landscapes.
