We have seen this approach many times in the past. When this government

Its the way it is done or the hypocrisy shown by the administration that

I've put peripheral input into environmental assessments in the past. For
something like the South Western deserts of the U.S., I'd say, as a rule of
thumb, that if a maximum of no more than 20% of the area was given over to
