            RUBICON TRAIL STATUS – CRITICAL
            Your attendance is requested on April 23rd in Sacramento!

            On Thursday, April 23rd the California Water Quality Control Board is having a
            public hearing in Rancho Cordova to finalize their decision on closing the
            Rubicon Trail.

            We are asking all NORA supporters within driving distance of Sacramento to
            attend this important public hearing. Off-Highway Vehicle (OHV) enthusiasts
            need to show the Water Board the overwhelming public support to keep the Rubicon
            Trail open year-round. NORA’s goal is to have over (500) OHV enthusiasts
            present at this public hearing.

            This is serious. On April 1st the United States Forest Service issued a 2-year
            temporary closure of the very popular Tellico OHV Area in North Carolina. Help
            Rubicon from turning into a Tellico type situation, by showing your support on
            April 23rd.

            Assemblyman Ted Gaines and a representative from Congressman Tom McClintock’s
            office will be in attendance. Local Sacramento news media will also be covering
            this historic event.

            Please call or email Erin Lara, Member Services Director at NORA to let her
            know if you are able to attend as we are trying to obtain a head count. She can
            be reached at (530) 333-1487, ext. 1 or info@nora-usa.com.

            MEETING PLACE AND TIME:

            LOCATION – 11020 Sun Center Drive # 200; Rancho Cordova, CA 95670
            DATE & TIME – Thursday, April 23rd @ 12:30 PM

            ================================================== ===

            The enviros have a new tactic--they assert that motorized vehicles cause water pollution whenever we cross a stream. They have persuaded the State Water Control Board to close the portion of the Rubicon Trail that is in the California watershed. The portion of the trail that is in the Lake Tahoe watershed is outside the jurisdiction of this water control board and will probably be a separate fight. That's why Cal4WDC consultant John Stewart requests that we DO NOT post any pictures of us crossing any streams; it just adds more fuel to the fire.

              I attended the Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board meeting in Rancho Cordova along with several hundred other off-road enthusiasts.

              Although the Board could have ordered the closure of the Rubicon Trail, a complete closure of the trail was never considered; instead, the Board adopted a Cleanup and Abatement Order (CAO) which gave El Dorado County and the Forest Service two years to develop a plan to mitigate the problems caused by soil runoff, human waste and oil spillage. Meanwhile, the County and Forest Service are required to submit annual reports on the progress they are making to control the problem.

              Here's a link to some of the materials submitted to the board for their consideration (see agenda item #12):

              http://www.waterboards.ca.gov/centra...04/index.shtml

              There were many last minute changes to the draft CAO; the final version is not yet posted on the website.
