This is public land, not land to give away and, as stated before, over and over again, be dredged and used for a harbor for potential windfall profit.

Reclaiming my time, this land was to be used for public purposes. This is public land, not land to give away and, as stated before, over and over again, be dredged and used for a harbor for potential windfall profit. Not only that, this action completely disregards the conservation goals of the adjacent national seashore by hindering access. On one hand, we talk about limited access to public lands; on the other, we hinder access to those places we see fit. With that, I reserve the balance of my time.
