Mitzelfelt letter supports a Marine expansion to the East and away from Johnson Valley.
Recent meetings with the Supervisor, Congressman Lewis, Senator Feinstein and the Partnership have resulted in the Supervisor's call for a de-designation of less than wilderness quality areas in eastern San Bernardino County. This de-designation would, according to Mitzelfelt, "facilitate the expansion toward an area with little conflict with desert residents" and "save the BLM's largest public OHV area for continued use."
The Partnership For Johnson Valley is excited to share this letter from San Bernardino First District Supervisor Brad Mitzelfelt on the steps being taken to retain our desert resources.
