As I've <br />told other planners and decision makers on other projects, you can no more evaluate the issues concerning a project by <br />looking at a map and reading public comments than you can savor the aroma and flavor of a freshly baked pie by merely <br />looking at a picture of it. You need to put yourself in the position of those who express their concerns. <br />Thank you. <br />pxvi4 <br />David Berg 14125 Brae Burn Drive I Eugene, OR I Phone: 541.683.0904 1 Mobile: 541.915.6823 <br />Volunteer Consulting Data Management Specialist I Conservation Operations I <br />The Nature Conservancy I Conserving the lands and waters on which all life depends. <br />Bush Heritage Australia I Protecting Australia's unique animals, plants, and their habitats. <br />National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration I West Coast Region Fisheries <br />Puget Sound Partnership I The backbone for Puget Sound recovery. <br />Sitka Technology Group I Software to raise the effectiveness of conservation programs. <br />President Emeritus I The River Otter Alliance I promoting the survival of otters through education, research, and habitat protection. <br />Award-winning The Otter Spirit: A Natural History Story and Conversation with a Beaver and Other ToLmeys into Nature, <br />and Weathered Wood and Other Short Stories, are available wherever fine books are sold. <br />Please also visit Judy's Art Gallery. <br />The greatest good is served solely by preserving and protecting the natural systems on which all life depends, the habitats that comprise them, <br />and the wildlife that inhabit them. <br />
