JoEllen Turner <br />970 -864 -7682 p.10 <br />VERY LITTLE VERY LITTLE "A" lift and trying to break down the system that was <br />psrovided by President Carter in 1977 is totally illegal. Again a violation of land owner <br />rights. <br />2.06.6(4) (c) <br />4.06.2(3) <br />4.25.4(4) <br />As you can see, the lists goes on and on and most of these have already been <br />previously submitted. All of you expect the Landowner to know these rules and <br />regulations and that is not our jobs, that is your jobs. It is the job of WFC, that is one of <br />the MANDATORY requirements of the ACT and of the rules and regulations <br />themselves. It is the States job to know these rules and it is OSM's job as the overseer <br />to know these rules, it is not the land owners responsibility. The STATE is suppose to <br />be protecting the landowner and the landowner rights by knowing and enforcing these <br />rules and regulations which HAS NOT BEEN DONE. As the JUDGE stated in court, <br />ignorance of the law or not knowing these rules is NO EXCUSE, it is a MANDATORY <br />responsibility of all of you. In fact, we should not EVER have to go to court because you <br />are suppose to have our back. Giving WFC the authority to determine things and <br />assume they are complying is not good enough. The Fox guarding the HEN house has <br />never been an answer. One thing l will mention again. WFC does their mining on <br />PRIVATE lands and these landowners are depending on the State to make sure these <br />rules and regulations are enforced and maintained and to know each and every rule that <br />applies to these properties. The cola mine would not even be here if it were not for us <br />Landowners. There would be NO coal, NO jobs, NO nothing here and as the ACT <br />states we are as valuable to them as they are to us and this should be a hand in hand <br />operation and there should be no fraudulent behavior and there would not be if the jobs <br />had been done correctly. Just because the coal mine says that is the way it is, wouldn't <br />it be wise to have one of your so called public meetings that is mentioned throughout <br />your rules and regulations and maybe get to talk to the ACTUAL people who manage <br />the properties. WFC KNEW NOTHING about farming until we taught them. AND as you <br />can clearly read in PR -06, they are not farmers. They cannot even get the equipment <br />correct as you can see in PR -07 also. You have been made aware of these facts for 5 <br />years now and still there has never been any type of communication between the <br />STATE and the landowner directly unless an objection is filed and a complaint has been <br />made. And your laws clearly spell out that WE have a right to accompany the <br />INSPECTOR of the complaint and we have requested this many many times in writing, <br />in person, and by phone and WE HAVE BEEN DENIED AND NEVER HAVE WE BEEN <br />PERMITTED TO ATTEND AND ADDRESS OUR COMPLAINT. This has again been a <br />direct violation of our rights under the rules and regulations) <br />So, I guess we will se where we go from here. I will be sending hard copies of <br />everything and also have MANY MANY more petitions to gather up and take this PR -07 <br />revision around so people to see and get my articles in the papers and to the proper <br />news media. We have been done very wrong here and none of this should ever even be <br />happening and MR. BERRY himself PROMISED us that this would never happen again <br />and here we are fighting the exact same fight the exact past things that had already <br />been resolved and PR -07 just backed us up of 5 years of progress. NRCS will be <br />receiving all of this, the local offices and everyone that has ever been involved on this <br />521P age <br />
