Early comment on EWRAC meeting

The Ocotillo Wells lawsuit was heard in court November 17th and the judge made a tentative ruling in favor of the defendants (The State and Ocotillo Wells). This means the lawsuit is over and very likely in our favor, that...

Just got this from Dave Hiatt. Not happy... Warning - I perused the agendas and they are creating DRAFT WA Administrative Code (W.A.C.) changes. This amounts to the RCO deciding to change the actual laws that are enforced on their own without legislative action. Many bureaucrats are trying to do thi...
