  1. Sponsorships still available for RDC's Annual Meeting June 21. See details and how your colleagues are participating: ow.ly/beb8Z
  2. Parnell: an EPA official has said they will not change their compliance as a result of the Sackett ruling.
  3. Parnell: I am concerned the EPA has not reformed its ways.
  4. Parnell: That could have been any private property owner. It was no question for Alaska to intervene.
  5. @AKGovParnell : when I first heard about the Sackett's situation I was outraged.
  6. Sackett: case shouldn't have gone to Supreme Court. But we were two middle class Americans trying to build a home, it was the right thing.
  7. Mike Sackett: we went to our county and got a building permit, and yet one EPA employee made our lives a 5-year nightmare
  8. Chantell Sackett: we had to fight the EPA because what they were doing was just wrong.
  9. Kagel: thankfully that verdict was NOT GUILTY and that couple introduced me to the Sacketts.
  10. Kagel: supposed fill of wetlands by a retired couple posed a 8 yr fed prison sentence, US Marshals standing by with handcuffs at trial.
  11. Ray Kagel, wetlands specialist and formerly with Army Corps of Engineers, describing other "wetlands" issues similar to Sacketts
  12. Burling: this was a 9-0 victory in the Supreme Court. Even typically liberal justices were outraged
  13. Burling @PacificLegal describes the court process including @AKGovParnell intervention all the way to US Supreme Court
  14. Burling @PacificLegal: if you get a letter from the EPA with your name on it, it's not a good day for you
  15. Sacked by the EPA: luncheon underway
  16. Last chance to register! Sacked by the EPA: special luncheon hosted by 15 business orgs on Tuesday. ow.ly/b0k4I
  17. Video from this morning's breakfast meeting is now online: ow.ly/aYZok
  18. Gease: Govt and NGO propaganda have ethic that no use is ideal and human use equals contamination
  19. Gease: Hunters, trappers, and anglers pay for licenses, which fund conservation in the US. Buy your licenses!
  20. Gease: Wise use conservation vs. no-use environmentalism. Responsible model vs. no use propaganda
