History Of Downsizing The Grand National Staircase

I am against the federal government's decision not to make Providence Canyon a national park. I believe that the Providence Canyon should become a national park for a variety of reasons in which I will discuss in this essay. Reasons such as it is a huge tourist attraction in the state of Georgia. In this essay you will know why the Providence Canyon should be a national park.

Providence Canyon, or the "Little Grand Canyon" as some call it, is a well-known tourist attraction in southwest Georgia. It is, as of now, a state park. However many believe that it should be recognized and made a national park. There are many reasons to support this decision. There is various types of wildlife, it could also be good for education on erosion and rock formations, and it would be good for the economic purposes because it is engulfed in tourism every year. This is why many believe that Providence Canyon should be made a national park.

In addition to environmental concerns, opponents argue that government regulation is too lax and as Bahr states, “It is all too easy to mine on public lands and the Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management have made it extremely easy to validate claims.” Although uranium miners recognize federal obligations to reclaim operation sites Roger Clark, Grand Canyon Program

A small parcel of land, part of the original property belonging to the Yountville Veterans’ Home, remained on the east side of State Road 29. The Veteran’s Home expressed an interest in providing the deed to this parcel of land to the Town of Yountville as long as the land was for use by the community and not sold for profit. The Town desired to create a park that was welcoming and connected the entrances to the Town of Yountville and the Veterans’ Home because they were

In the United States, there are millions of acres of land dedicated to our national parks. Over half of the states in our country have land dedicated to national parks, and according to Linda J. Bilmes and John Loomis, the National Parks Service protects 412 of these places. The amount of land dedicated to these parks is quite a considerable amount and it has drawn the attention of the federal government. The government believes there should be cut backs on the amount of land dedicated to places such as Yellowstone and Ellis Island. However, if these parks, monuments, etc. were to be reduced in size, the United States would lose protection of a magnitude of important things such as areas of land and water, animal habitats, historical sites, monuments, and areas sacred to

While the mainstream media has its attention focused on North Dakota’s Standing Rock Sioux tribe in their fight against the Dakota Access Pipeline, there are many other tribes also struggling to protect their native ancestral sites and cultural resources throughout the United States that are going unnoticed. One such tribe is the Menominee Indian Tribe of Wisconsin. This tribe is attempting to stop Aquila Resources’ Back Forty Project which would create a mine alongside and under the treasured Menominee River. This open pit gold, zinc, and copper mine would destroy burial grounds, former raised garden beds, ancient village sites, dance rings, and more. Thus, it is clear that the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe is not the only tribe fighting to protect its culture and environment. In fact, the only unique thing about the Dakota Access Pipeline is the national coverage it has received (Thompson). Therefore, in this paper, I aim to do justice to the Menominee Tribe who has not been so fortunate to find its plights in the public’s view. The Menominee Tribe’s concerns have not been fully taken into account and valued in the mining permit approval process and news coverage of their fight has been severely lacking. This paper will support this claim by utilizing data and information from numerous sources to include data from Aquila Resources about the Project, testimony and stories from the Menominee Tribe, and

Have you ever heard of the Little Grand Canyon? The providence canyon was not even a canyon it was a dense forest. That all changed when farmers moved into the area in the 1800's They stared growing crop and cotton. Well the Little Grand Canyon is where the testament to the man's influence to the land. The gullies that are in the little Grand Canyon are as deep as 150 it was made there by poor farming practices in the 1800's. , When the framers was cutting down trees and everything they did not realize that this that these traditional farming methods was initiating a string of events that would change the landscape.

Providence Canyon is a historic plot of land that stretches for miles before our very eyes. It has many gorgeous views for days to come. Calling it a national park would mean that people would take seriously how important it is to keep it protected for years and years to come. People would appreciate how great this monument is if it were correctly maintained. Our children's children would bathe in awe of such a great attraction. After all, if a name like "Little Grand Canyon" does not cause seriousness to change the status of this park to a national one, then what does? Not only is this is a beautiful sight to see, it could also be good for the economy. As more and more people come from far and wide to see the canyon, more money would be pulled in to benefit the surrounding businesses which could potentially make the park a national one. This could mean the difference between being a national symbol of Georgia or continuing to be undermined as a state park.

Have you heard that Nevada is considering whether to charge a $2 fee for each person to enter and use parks and community playgrounds? The money that is gained would be used to maintain and improve buildings, fields, courts, and playground equipment. Some people find this as a great idea but I find this wrong and shouldn't even be considered at all. Whether it's to maintain and and improve our state it does not matter and here are some reasons, facts, and evidence why we should rebel against this act.

Our principle should approve a field trip to Lava Bed National Monument. He should approve a field trip to the monument, because it seems like a wonderful place we should go on for our field trip. The Lava Bed National Monument is between the states of California and Oregon, but it is actually located in the state of California. That is a very long, extensive drive, but the national monument is worth to take the time out and go to. The Lava Bed National Monument is 47,000 acres. That is a very enormous monument and it has only 130,000 visitors each year, which is not a massive amount of visitors. It does not get as much tourists as its neighboring national parks or

However, I was surprised by just how efficiently they ran the meeting. This was due to the Board referring to the recommendations of their staff. A land development staff member presented each application and provided the recommended action from their department. As stated before, most requests for easements and setbacks were met with little to no opposition, so those motions were passed with high efficiency. The breakdown in that process came about during the issue of zoning, where there were greater consequences at stake and both the Commissioners and general public presented more arguments. Overall, the general efficiency surprised me and exceeded my expectations that I had prior to attending.

In an attempt to help the ecology of our wondrous desert, I plan to take part in National Public Lands Day held at the Big Morongo Canyon Preserve on September 30, 2017 from 8:00am-2:00pm. According to the Big Morongo Canyon Preserve Newsletter (2017), I will assist in repairing trails, fencing, and signs in the preserve. My first step in this project is to get my proposal approved by Mrs. Zacks, of Yucca Valley High School. Second, I will have to negotiate a plan with my parents to drive me there and back as I cannot transport myself. Third, I will listen to music and enjoy the landscape as I ride to the preserve. Fourth, I will participate in the National Public Lands Day in Morongo Valley. Fifth, upon completion of

While proponents of Yucca Mountain say that the project could boost the economy of the state of Nevada, many scientific, safety, regulatory and political challenges to the project remain to this day. The state of Nevada filed over 200 technical and legal challenges including environmental, safety and transportation concerns to the project.

Not by describing the details of the destruction of the acreage but the worth that it will be after the fact. Making sure that the town and council understands that the land is not being uprooted for any demeaning nature but for growth and opportunity that the town of Beatty is in great need, and if this opportunity is not met in a quick manner, the fact of the matter is that there will not be a need for land preservation for tourism because the land itself will not have any tourist. The town of Beatty is really relying on the jobs that this addition is going to bring and the revenue that will be put back into the state is in great need.

If guests want to keep visiting the parks and be able to experience the scenic views of different states, they need to be respectful of the earth. Guests need to think of the impact they are having on others, not just themselves. “While Utah’s residents and visitors are having fun in the outdoors, they also feed our economy and improve their health.” Said The State of Utah Outdoor Recreation Vision. “Utah’s outdoor recreation industry is a significant and growing part of the states economy, contributing well-paying jobs, for highly skilled workers and a tax base that funds essential state services.” As long as Americans are participating in wholesome, appropriate activities, they are contributing to the wellness of America. When Americans take advantage of the rights and privileges they are given, they are affecting the United States in a negative way.
