let me say this to the gentleman. If we had any sense and the President had time enough to talk to us, we would have said the Grand Staircase Escalante should be 50-mile mountain, and it should be Paria-Hackberry. I would agree, it is almost national park status. There is one little tiny part of it. They did not talk to us. In fact, no one from the delegation was even alerted, which I find a little offensive.
