Many thanks to all who recently submitted comments regarding PWC use at the Missouri National Recreation River. The Missouri River is an area which was not exempted from the outright ban, whereas Delaware Water Gap was exempted. Therefore, it is paramount that we show NPS that the American public doesn't want PWC on any National Parks waterway. NPS has mentioned that this type of specific reference is particularly poignant in evaluating visitor comments. The NPS is not obligated to accommodate every new recreational activity, and in the past has limited or restricted activities that are not resource based, or that impact park resources and values.
Numerous studies show that jet skis cause lasting damage to park resources and wildlife.
But, the competition will be tough. We need to continue our pressure on those members of Congress who are sitting on the bench concerning revitalizing LWCF and praise those members who have made it to the plate on our behalf. Thanks for all of your hard work on this issue. This group, including in its ranks some of the world's most powerful corporations and trade associations involved with fossil fuels, concentrated its efforts on a series of television ads that attempted to confuse and frighten Americans. The campaign was successful.
