We have to have some sort of a letter to them by the 16 the of March. We just found out about this yesterday. None of us have experience in this sort of matter.

[Steve Herschbach]

It is a draft bill - from http://cgpgold.org/protect-exploration-access-in-pershing-county/

"If you have information about current or planned exploration or mining activities that relate to the draft bill, please share your knowledge with your senators by Friday, March 18. You can send your comments to:

Jeremy Harrell in Senator Dean Heller’s office at:
Jeremy_harrell@heller.senate.gov

and

Sara Moffat in Senator Harry Reid’s office at:
sara_moffat@reid.senate.gov

As always, keep your comments respectful, factual and calm."

[Sourdough Scott]

Thanks Steve for the information.

Comstock gold prospectors have claims in the blue wing area wonder if this will affect their claims also?

[Sourdough Scott]

Yes they do Art. Our claims are real close to theirs at Comstock.
