The <br />two addi~ional faxed sheets describes the Elock/Segmenc Plan <br />developed by the BWG. This land management plan should be us~d <br />instead of using the 10 segments of equal size that 1s describea. <br /> <br />Page 1, 2nd paragraph: Private donations of land and contributions <br />is not considered an issue.
