Great article by Jacob Bertram. Our on-going concerns were expressed to Jacob in an email which regretfully reached him after the deadline. "We have identified some areas of possible concern, but until we see the actual application, with the completed studies and plans such as septic and I believe a wetland study, we won’t be able to speak very specifically. Domestic water is certainly a concern. The intention is to drill an exempt well, I think, and it’s hard to see how that can provide enough water. The area is a wildlife corridor, and we have some concern about the impact of up to 90 dispersed tent sites, plus the central facilities on wildlife. We also have concerns about human/wildlife interactions. We do not want to see a development that causes bear and cougar to be identified as “danger” animals and therefore killed. Traffic is another obvious concern, and fire, of course, is always a concern around here. “
