Steve, Joe, Matt, and Charles and others,
    I would think an immediate letter from both the CFO and DFO should be sent regarding this grazing policy at Tamarack Ranch and sent to the leadership that oversees that area.

Jeff Ver Steeg - Acting Director, Colorado Parks and Wildlife
Mark Leslie - Northeast Manager
Address - Colorado Parks and Wildlife, 1313 Sherman Street, Denver 80203

My two cents. I would hate to see this area permanently destroyed.

Before any birding organization goes ballistic, there should be on-ground exploration of the situation as well as the information seeking approached discussed earlier. I was at Tamarack Ranch earlier this week. I did see and hear cattle in part of the wooded area near the West Parking Area 1. I did not have an impression of any extensive damage to habitat. This needs a measured approach.

We also need to make sure that it isn’t just Russian olive removal. Bill K and I noticed extensive removal of these bushes throughout the east unit during a November visit last year.
