  • united land use conference announced.

    The 2004 United Land Use Conference (ULUC), sponsored by the United
    Four Wheel Drive Associations (UFWDA), will be held at the Harrisburg
    Holiday Inn Hotel and Conference Center in Hershey, PA. on July 7.
    The hotel is located at the intersection of I-83 and the Pennsylvania
    Turnpike.

    The featured conference presentation will be from the U.S. Forest
    Service National OHV Policy Team. Representatives from the OHV
    Policy Team will provide a briefing on the new proposed rules that
    will apply to National Forest System lands to address management
    issues related to motor vehicle use.

    The proposed rule change will integrate motor vehicle use with
    regulations for the Forest transportation system and provide a
    consistent national framework for designation of motor vehicles in
    the National Forest system. Another major element will require
    Forests to designate roads, trails, and areas available for motor
    vehicle use. This briefing will be one of many conducted by the
    policy team to inform the recreation public of pending rule changes.

    The tentative conference agenda is:

    8:00 - Introductions
    8:30 - Roundtable: What concerns you about access to public lands?
    9:30 - Lobbying - Presentation will cover "How to Lobby Your Elected
    Representative" and include letter writing and public speaking tips.

    12-3:00 US Forest Service - National OHV Policy briefing; including
    question and answer session
    3-4:00 - Roundtable: What concerns you about access to public lands?
    (continued)
    4-5:00 - OHV Lobby Day in Washington - Spring 2005

    Conference Registration Fee of $25 per person. For more information
