ACTION ALERT: Act now to help miners Public Lands for the People is urging all miners and mining organizations to write letters to the Bureau of Land Management so that miners will be represented on the BLM Desert Advisory Council. PLP President Walt Wegner has endorsed four nominees for the DAC. They are: Randy Coleman, Bill Jensen, Jerry Shodall and Scott Warner. The letters must be submitted by Jan. 8, so time is of the essence. “We need to get these four people on this advisory board,” Wegner said. “This is a last-minute thing, but it’s important. This is critical. PLP is expanding and getting more proactive.” These nominees are also supported by Joe Martori of Sleepy Bear Mine and other mining advocacy groups listed below. The letters are to be addressed to: Teresa A. Raml, District Manager, BLM California Desert District 22835 Calle San Juan De Los Lagos Moreno, Valley CA 92553 Below are some sample letters. Please be advised that letters may be sent to Joe Martori at trilogyjoe@yahoo. He will hand-deliver the letters by the Jan. 8 deadline. Wegner urges all miners to read the biographies on the nominees (see images) and write letters based on the sample letter. SAMPLE LETTER 661-724-MINE (6463) * P. O. Box 2411 California City, CA 93504 * trilogyjoe@yahoo Contact: Joe M. Thursday, December 27, 2014 TO: Teresa A. Raml, District Manager and Stephen Razo BLM California Desert District 22835 Calle San Juan De Los Lagos Moreno Valley, CA 92553 Subject: Our Recommendations for Representation on the DAC Committee Wildlife Representative The California Desert District Mining Coalition (CDDMC) is comprised of a combination of over 17,000 miners and papered mines in the California Desert District controlling hundreds of thousands to millions of acres of public and private land. The CDDMC was formed only to try and to get information out to the public and to the public officials to show them what was happening behind their backs, without their knowledge in some cases. The CDDMC has worked diligently to educate the public without any representation on the DAC committee from biologists, arborist, environmentalists, conservationists, endangered species specialists, facility planning specialists, GIS/GPS, green construction specialists, field & desert ecologists, botanists, geologists, ornithologists and HazMat/DTSC like Mr. Randy Coleman. He is not swayed by environmental, conservationists and endangered species groups with opinions not facts. He is known in the mining circle to be fair and just on presenting the scientific facts. He truly represents the people who love the desert and do not want to see the opinionists tie up valuable multi-purpose lands. As you can see from Mr. Coleman’s bio and background, he is the perfect man to represent any group on the DAC Committee as a Wildlife Group Representative. It has been a joy to work with this man for the last few years. Its nice to know you can sit next to a person that has love for the land, but still remembers that the land was granted to the public for multiple uses and not to stifle economic development. Mr. Coleman has worked closely with the mines, miners and the CDDMC for years now and as you can see by San Bernardino county records, the county leads the state in mining ventures; he looks out for the land and animals while approving mining and construction projects. As congressionally and federally recognized stakeholders in California and throughout the United States; THE CDDMC BACKS AND VOTES FOR MR. RANDY COLEMAN TO REPRESENT US ON THE DAC COMMITTEE FOR WILDLIFE REPRESENTATIVE THE CDDMC DOES NOT RECOGNIZE ANY OTHER CANIDATE NOR GET OUR VOTE TO REPRESENT US, THE MINING COMMUNITY, ON THE DAC COMMITTEE Sincerely, The California Desert District Mining Coalition The following is a message from Joe Martori: 661-724-MINE (6463) * P. O. Box 2411 California City, CA 93504 * trilogyjoe@yahoo Contact: Joe M. Thursday, December 18, 2014 TO: All Miners, Lease holders of Public and Private Lands, Mining Clubs, Mining Equipment Manufacturers, Mining Companies, Outdoorsmen and Outdoorswoman, Offroaders, Lovers of Freedom etc. Subject: DRECP, NEPA, CEQA and Senator Feinsteins’ New Bill The California Desert District Mining Coalition (CDDMC) has been looking out for you and has responded to land closing situations that 99% of us no nothing about or if we did could not understand it or fathom that in the United States this could happen to our rights. CDDMC created a website a few years back just for information that the common man could go to see the players in the fight. Now it has turned from information gatherer to entity that wants to bring Power to the People. CDDMC feels that if all the players could focus their energies together as one entity as it was put to us, “CDDMC would be an unstoppable juggernaut.” This is not just for southern California. It is for all of California and then the United States. Some of you have heard about the land takeover by the Desert Renewable Energy Conservation Plan (DRECP) and what they do not take will be taken over by the Area of Critical Environmental Concern (ACEC) and as of Dec. 11th, 2014 at Thursday nights BLM Steering Committee meeting Senator Feinsteins’ put out a bill to take over the rest of the open space on public lands. Is this all real? YES. Attached is a letter, one of many to the DRECP and BLM showing on behalf of the public that there are many issues. CDDMC cannot fight this alone. DRECP, ACEC’S and Feinstein is all about making all public lands Conservation Land. PROPOSAL: There is so much more that we cannot put into this letter, but it is the Holiday Season and we only have till Jan. 8, 2015 to get all of the letters and recommendations in, so we are getting right to the point and need. Cc: all letters to trilogyjoe@yahoo Subject Line ONE EFFORT. The first timeline that must be met by all. We have TWO volunteers to be appointed to the Desert Advisory Council (DAC) a federal 3-year appointed term determined by the Department of the Interior. The DAC committee basically hears the public and lets the Federal Government know what the public wants, having power over the public lands. The first one is Bill Jensen to represent the miner and mining claims (Non-Renewable Resources) or Public At Large. He will look out for our rights on multiple-use of the land and the 1872 Mining Law via the Congress. The second one is Randy Coleman we have a biologist and many other acronyms that fight the lies of the endangered species groups and the conservationists. He only looks at scientific facts. I stress if it is backed by scientific fact not opinions, as most of the environmental groups get legislation on, then he fights for us. Both these gentlemen have their bios attached and have backed Sleepy Bear Mining for the last 4 years and have become real friends to the miners going on public record and to most of the events and meetings. DIRECTIONS:They must have letters from all the mining groups, one letter per group, manufacturer, club or organization. In this letter please put the number of people/clients represented, the California area represented, and that you back them for this position. There must be a letter for each person, Bill and Randy. (See attached letter from CDDMC) Please write your own. You can use some of the same verbiage, but make it your own. In the Letter please put that we do not back Nathan Francis from Rio Tinto. There are many reasons why including that Rio Tinto just gave back private land to a conservatory and in the past some people that where on the DAC Committee only looked out for large companies not really helping any miner looking out for only the billion dollar companies. We do not need another one of them. We have a lot of plans on bringing everyone together fast to benefit from the Republican takeover. We want to run cable TV spots across California since they are very cheap on Saturday and Sundays for good time spots on educating Californians on the Public Land takeovers and what mining can do in an expedient way for the state and the power of the 1872 Mining Law. ½ hour spots range from $90 to $250 for spots on various local cable channels. To start for fund raising we are looking to have a revered non-profit to be the infrastructure to get this started instead of setting up CDDMC as the main link to bring in donations from the public to support efforts to fight. We are ready to put on an internet video with the song by Florida Georgia Line, “Dirt” sung by one of our own to start the donation efforts with an on-line campaign. Next we are ready, for donations, to send out bumper stickers that state, “If it isn’t grown it’s mined” cddmc” , a book; National Legal Center for the Public Interest book, “The Mining Law of 1872: A Legal and Historical Analysis There are a lot of plans we just need to get started immediately. The next timeline we must meet is Feb.1, 2015 to respond to the DRECP. This is very important. You must also as groups and separate letters as individuals to your Congressman that you do not want the DRECP, ACEC Or Feinsteins bill to pass in California. This needs to get to your congressman by Feb. 1, 2015. Congress and Senate links on cddmc .The CDDMC needs help on writing general comments and revised language for 130 sections of California for the DRECP via CDDMC. We need people that know how to write. There are over 900 pages to read to write these responses due by Feb. 1, 2015. Please email Joe at trilgyjoe@yahoo subject line: DRECP Help. Lets bring all the players protecting us together to make an unstoppable juggernaut.
