On the recordSeptember 27, 2006
H.R. 5016, introduced by Mr. Kolbe, would consolidate lands within the Las Cienegas National Conservation Area located 50 miles south of Tucson. The area consists of 42,000 acres managed by the Bureau of Land Management. This legislation would add 2,490 acres of private land to the conservation area in exchange for 1,280 acres of isolated BLM lands. The bill would also modify the boundary of the conservation area to exclude a 40-acre tract of land for a sanitary landfill. This area was inadvertently included in the original boundary. I would urge support for this bill.
