(2) increasing pressure from the rapidly grow-
ing population of California threatens to irrevocably 
harm remaining wilderness areas and wild rivers;

inspiration for all people of the United States; 
(4) continuation of military activities (including 
overflights, military rotary wing environmental train-
ing, military maneuvers, testing and evaluation, and 
other activities) is compatible with the protection 
and proper management of the wilderness and wild 
and scenic river resources designated by this Act; 
(5) wildfire management activities necessary to 
protect public health and safety and private property 
are fully allowable in wilderness areas, and the Sec-
retary concerned must be able to take any measures 
determined necessary to control or prevent fires; and 
(6) land and rivers are designated as part of 
the National Wilderness Preservation System and 
the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System by this
