“The pending measure introduced by our colleague, Mike Simpson, renames the Snake River Birds of Prey National Conservation Area in the State of Idaho as the Morley Nelson Snake River Birds of Prey National Conservation Area. Morley Nelson was an ardent advocate for birds of prey and was instrumental in establishing the Snake River Birds of Prey National Conservation Area. The National Conservation Area includes approximately 500 acres and is one of the densest known nesting populations of eagles, falcons, owls, hawks, and other birds of prey in North America. I do commend our colleague, Mike Simpson from Idaho, for his work on the bill. I support the passage of H.R. 3734.”
