Can you guys send a note to the OHVMR Commission?

This, based on the Dave Pickett (yea!) AMA email below:

...WRITE ONE E-Mail and send to: ohvinfo.ohv@parks.ca.gov

in subject line enter CARNEGIE SUPPORT LETTER..

Enter something like this:

Dear Commissioners Cabral, Lueder, Lemmon, Litwin, Murphy, Patrovsky and Slavik:

“My family supports the Carnegie SVRA EIR and GP and ask all of to you to support it by voting YES.”
Sincerely,
Name, address, city, zip code, blah blah blah

It only takes a minute of time, and we have WAITED for 20 years for this final step…………………..

Edit: I'm gonna say... single track dirt bike trails better provide habitat for indigenous flora an fauna than most other uses, especially the historic cattle grazing application for the expansion property. Don't you care about the environment? Something like that.

original content:
Commission will only accept ORAL comments AT the meeting during Public Comment on this Agenda item. We need hundreds if not thousands of folks to attend, or send the Commission a note.
IF a person wants to, they can send a support letter for the Carnegie/Tesla EOR/GP if they wish.
A LETTER or EMAIL can be sent to the commission members as an individual or family, to OHV Division c/o individual Commissioners as listed on www.ohv.parks.ca.gov
On top is listed the word COMMISSION which will give information.

Or, just WRITE ONE E-Mail and send to: www.ohv.parks.ca.gov and in subject line enter CARNEGIE SUPPORT LETTER. Staff at OHV Division will forward your email to the Commissioners.
You can enter this: Dear Commissioners Cabral, Lueder, Lemmon, Litwin, Murphy, Patrovsky and Slavik:
Enter your text like - “My family supports the Carnegie SVRA EIR and GP and ask all of to you to support it by voting YES.”
Sincerely, Or Thank You for this consideration,
Then enter you Name, address, city, zip code.

The commissioners will get a copy PRIOR to the meeting, which will NOT allow written comments to be added to the process as written comments are CLOSED.
But, as above you CAN send each or all OHV Commissioners a communication like this example……..

Spread the word to you friends and family to send an email.
It only takes a minute of time, and we have WAITED for 20 years for this final step…………………..

I just sent this, per the instructions in post #5:

Dear Commissioners Cabral, Lueder, Lemmon, Litwin, Murphy, Patrovsky and Slavik:

My family supports the Carnegie SVRA EIR and GP and ask all of to you to support it by voting YES.
I feel the expansion area will provide a critical habitat for indigenous flora, fauna and OHV users. Previous applications, such as grazing, have been environmentally destructive.

I wish I could be there. So frustrating that these meetings are almost always middle of the workday. These are public agencies—it ought to be easier for the public to attend.
