Letter from W. W. Bass to Carl Hayden requesting the boundaries of the park be reconsidered as a large portion of the land is suitable for mining and farming.
Letter from Carl Hayden to W. W. Bass concerning the passing of the national park bill. Hayden states that he will try to make the bill as advantageous to Arizona miners and farmers as possible, but the land will either remain as a national monument or become a national park. A postscript is added concerning the land allocated for the Havasupai Tribe.
Mission: To regulate and support Arizona Agriculture in a manner that encourages farming, ranching and agribusiness, while protecting consumers and natural resources.
Amendments to the bill establishing the Grand Canyon a National Monument. Circa 1908.
The most complete version assembled of the story of the 56 plants and animals in Pima County that are in need of protection under the SDCP. Three years ago when discussions began about creating a multi-species protection plan, there was no comprehensive inventory of the resource base.
Recommends which of the over 100 vulnerable species of concern in Pima County should be considered for coverage under the County's future permit and further analyze approximately 50 animals and plants as potentially covered species under the multi-species conservation plan.
To facilitate development of the Environmental Impact Statement which must accompany the Section 10 multi-species conservation proposal, a series of issue papers were prepared. In Pima County, ranching is uniquely able to preserve the integrity of vast tracts of connected and unfragmented open space and wildlife habitat. This study reviews the effect of five alternative permit strategies on the County's ability to preserve unfragmented landscapes through conserving ranch lands.
Provides a detailed description of plants and animals that are being considered as potentially covered under the multi-species program, organized by taxonomic group. Two strong themes emerge when this compilation of species accounts is read together: one is the enormous importance of aquatic and riparian-based habitats to the majority of priority vulnerable species, and the other is the very bleak biological status of the riparian system.
