in the USFS, not in FERC. They
inserted this language to make the
potential approval of a Right-of-Way
Grant for the MVP consistent with
a decision USFS made long ago to
try to encourage co-location of utility
projects. They are now realizing the
petontially massive negative effects
of such a corridor, and they have
asked for citizens to comment
specifically on this proposal.
The U.S. Senate and House of
Representatives have each already
passed bills to create at least 10
massive utility corridors through
Federal lands in the eastern USA
(including Natio~a,! Parks and
N~tional F~restsi: ~ ~ S ~.(Ji2.
These bills are simply awaiting
conference committee negotiations
and a second approval in each
Congressional chamber before being
forwarded for presidential
signature.
Under pressure from energy
lobbyists, these bills exempt beth the
creation of these corridors and any
private or public utility projects that
use these corridors from any
effective review (under NEPA, the
National Environmental Policy Act)
of their potential environmental
impacts. This Congressional effort to
create pre-approved utility corridors
is independent of the Forest Service
proposal to designate a local corridor
in the Jefferson National Forest, but
there would seem to be little doubt
that if a local National Forest
corridor comes to pass, it will be an
attractive target to be designated as
one of the proposed large-scale
Federal Energy Corridors. And those
Federal Energy Corridors could be
designed to be even larger than 500
feet in width.
Please help stop this threat to the
National Forest and local citizens
and landowners: Sign the petition

your comments to Forest Supervisor

yet, do both: send a letter and sign
the petition. If you chose to only
write a letter, read the petition first.
Tell them that you expect the
Forest Service to do its duty to
protect the Jefferson National
Forest, which we all treasure, and
that we do not want our forest and
our communities destroyed to make
a "utility superhighway" for the use
of private corporations bent only on
huge profits. The National Forest
belongs to all Americans, so you can
add your voice, regardless of where
you live: Please act now before it is
too late!.

A Quick Selective Service
Quiz
(NAPS)--Many are surprised
when they learn they don't know
as much about the Selective Ser-
vice and the law as they thought
they did. To help, here is a quick
quiz with some fast facts.
Q)Who must register with
the Selective Service?
A) Young men are required to
register when they turn 18.
Q)Does this also apply to
immigrants?
A) Yes. It also applies to male
immigrants residing in the U.S.,
regardless of their immigration
status.
Young men are required to regis-
ter with the Selective Service
when they turn 18.
Q)Are there any benefits to
registering?.
A) Those who register remain
eligible for student financial aid
and federal job training programs,
and those who want to become a
citizen will have to show proof of
registration. Also, some states
now require it when applying for a
driver's license.
Q)Are there significant
penalties for not registering?
A) Yes. Those who don't comply
face fines of up to $250,000, a
prison sentence of up to five years
or both.
