On the recordMay 1, 2001
H.R. 182 would authorize a study to determine whether it would be appropriate to designate the Eightmile River in Connecticut as part of the Wild and Scenic Rivers program. The Eightmile has already been identified by the National Park Service as a potential Wild and Scenic River based on its outstanding scenic, geologic and wildlife values, and an official study is the next step in the process. It is our hope that once the study has been completed, the Eightmile can be added to the impressive list of waterways included in this important program. We support H.R. 182 and urge our colleagues to do the same.
