[QUOTE="KDM, post: 148574, member: 314"] Whoa Whoa Whoa there GST. The "critical habitat designation" applies to only those activities funded or controlled by the federal govt. It doesn't apply to private activities not funded or controlled by the fed govt. If the govt. declares my land "critical habitat" for the gulf fritillary butterfly, that doesn't mean I can't do what I want on that land. If I don't use federal funds or cooperate with federal entities, I am free to do what I want with the land. If you believe me to be in error, please show me the documentation. Additionally, the sportsmen that don't own land can't be held accountable to educate themselves on these POS perpetual easements. We as landowners, need to be educated. We make the decisions on whether or not to sign the papers, not the sportsmen. Unfortunately it's the sportsmen who may ultimately pay the price down the road, but it's the landowners who hold the strings here. Not trying to pick a fight, but this is what I know to be the truth. If you know otherwise, please post it up as I'm very interested to know if I'm wrong. [/QUOTE]
