Short Description of Activity
We were asked to sign onto a report of grazing violations in the Malhuer National Forest. We have been involved in that and specically Gail Shephard with our leadership team.
Reflection/Evaluation
We went back and forth after reading the report on the violations. We were unsure about signing onto the report as we did not have boots on the ground. We brought that to their attention and agreed to sign a letter of support, but unless they recognize Gail’s participation/work on the report we can’t sign onto that report.
