That is correct. Even though we are designating wildlife observation, hunting, fishing, and environmental education as priority public uses the bill requires each of these to pass the compatibility test. Even these uses have occasionally been determined to be incompatible on a number of refuges in the past and may be so in the future.

I deplore any rhetoric of hate, and particularly against the state of Israel.
I agree with your comments and Senator Sarbanes' comments also, concerning on the financial issues.
Does the Senator hear from his school committees and local councilmen about the rising costs of special education and the difficulty that places on the property tax payer?
Chafee is under fire from conservatives for bucking the party line on many issues including Iraq.
