RESOLUTION NO. 95-13
A RESOLUTION OF THE COLUSA COUNTY
BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
IN SUPPORT OF AN IMMEDIATE MORATORIUM
ON THE REGULATORY ACTIONS OF THE
U.S. FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE
WHEREAS, Congress on July 4, 1776 unanimously adopted the
Declaration of Independence which states "that all men are created equal,
that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights,
that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness" ; and
WHEREAS, the Declaration of Independence further states that "to
secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their
just powers from the consent of the governed" ; and "That, whenever any
form of government becomes destructive to these ends, it is the right of
the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute a new government"
that will affect the safety and happiness of the people; and
WHEREAS, the government was formed "of, by and for the people" ; and
WHEREAS, the people of the United States have adopted a Constitution
that enumerates and guarantees these rights; and
WHEREAS, the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service has violated these
Constitutional rights and property rights that are held within the
Constitution and have purposely attempted to circumvent the intent of
Congress in regard to the National Biological Survey in California as
well as in other states within the union, and
WHEREAS, the Biological Opinion in regard to CVP renewal of three
year interim contracts violates/undermines these rights through
oppressive regulatory demands; thus
we, the people do hereby demand that,
An immediate moratorium be instituted against all U. S. Fish and
Wildlife activities and all USF&W funds for regulatory actions be frozen,
until such time as Congress has reviewed USF&W activities as they relate
to the rights and freedoms of the people of the United States .
Specifically, these activities include designation of critical habitat,
issuing of Biological Opinions, surveying and assessment of private
property for the presence and habitat of endangered, threatened and
candidate species .
Resolution passed and adopted this 28th day of February, 1995 by the
following vote:
AYES: Supervisors Nathanael L. McCoy, David G. Womble and
W.D. Mills.
NOES: Supervisor William R. Waite.
ABSENT: Supervisor Kay K. Nordyke.
