“I rise in support of S. 341 which would direct a land exchange of about 132 acres of Federal lands in Colorado for approximately 1,307 of inholdings owned by Eagle and Pitken Counties in Colorado. This bill has been fully explained by Chairman Vento. It is a commonsense bill that makes sense for both the Forest Service and Eagle and Pitken Counties. It is supported by the entire Colorado delegation and the administration. Congressman Scott McInnis, who represents this area, has been actively involved in this legislation. In fact, he introduced H.R. 1199, which is the House companion to S. 341, and he is in full support of the Senate version. I urge my colleagues to support S. 341.”
