Support YOUR Favorite CA OHV Grant Projects - Comment Period Ends April 6, 2015

OHV Grant Supported OHV Bridge
Tahoe NF

The Recreation HQ is back in 2015 with one of our first alerts and that is in regards to letting your voice be heard when it comes to support for the CA OHV Grant Program.

OHV Restoration Grant
Mendocino NF


The CA OHV Grant Program provides critical funding to help augment congressional appropriations for OHV recreation on federal lands.  Having served on the Region 5 Recreation Resource Advisory Committee and OHMVR Commission, I can attest to the important role the grant program plays to ensure that OHV recreation remains a viable activity on FS/BLM lands and county parks.  Managing sustainable OHV recreation in the 21st Century requires an “all hands approach” which includes grants, appropriated funds, and volunteerism.

The OHMVR Division has made it easy to comment by going to the link below.  The comment period ends on April 6, 2015. This period provides an opportunity for the public to review and provide comments to the preliminary applications submitted to the OHMVR Division for consideration during the 2014/15 grant cycle.

OHV Grant to Reopen Youngs Corral Bypass

Remember this is your program and your letter shows both support for the applicants and the OHMVR Division grant staff that works hard to administer the process.

Thanks!

Yolo County Board to Vote on New OHV Park (Tue. April 23)

Road to New County OHV Park?
(100 acre proposal is on the other side of the levee at end of the road)
 
The Yolo County Board of Supervisors will be meeting in Woodland to consider passing a resolution in support for creation of a NEW OHV county park on about 100 acres of unused land N.E. of the city.
 
Currently there is not a single acre of legal OHV opportunity in the county.  This project would serve the recreational needs of the area by providing a managed OHV facility.
 
The Board of Supervisors is meeting at 9:00 a.m. on Tuesday (April 23) at the Yolo County Administrative Building, 625 Court Street, Woodland, CA 95695.

I hope to see you there.  Not too often we get a chance to support a new OHV facility.
