Sand to Snow Monument Will Remain Unchanged

Posted on MBCA News by · August 16, 2017 3:15 PM · 1 reaction
"Our" Sand to Snow National Monument will remain as it was created, according to news from the Interior Department, following its listing for "review" by that Department earlier this year.  The state of our other nearby Monument, Mojave Trails, is not yet known, but recommendations for reduction in size based on extractive industry interests is anticipated.  The Desert Sun article about the Sand-to-Snow announcement provides a great deal more information, including a history of the Monument effort and quotations from several Morongo Basin residents.  Read the Los Angeles Times article on the subject.

President Obama  Protects 1.8 Million Acres 
On February 11, 2016, President Obama designated three new national monuments:
  • Sand to Snow (in our own backyard)
  • National Trails
  • Castle Mountains
A BIG THANK YOU to the many MBCA members and supporters who wrote letters and appeared at events to support this.
Read about the new Monuments in this LA Times article and a Q&A document from the Department of the Interior .  It has detailed
information about the process leading to this action and what it means for each new  Monument.
