No. 13-CV-1028-PHX-PGR

 ORDER

Before the Court is the Motion of the Arizona Cattle Growers’ Association (“ACGA”)

to Participate as Amicus Curiae in Support of Neither Party. (Doc. 24.)

The ACGA asserts that it “is uniquely qualified to provide additional insight to this

Court on issues related to cattle grazing and its effect on the Sonoran Desert National

Monument and the surrounding communities” and that its amicus brief will “assist this Court

by providing a prospective not represented by the parties to the case.” (Id. at 2.) The ACGA

further states that it has contacted the parties and they take no position on the motion.

(Id. at 3.)

Accordingly, 

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED granting the ACGA’s motion to participate as amicus

curiae. (Doc. 24.)
