BEFORE THE DEADLINE OF APRIL 29!!
Let’s be clear: this is a real threat to Burning Man’s future, and we need the community’s help.
Send this email to your campmates and subject matter experts. Read the report. Comment now and join us at the public meetings in Reno on Monday
April 8 and Lovelock on Tuesday April 9 (details in the posts).
This EIS is for the next 10-year permit. We have asked BLM to study potential growth, but we have no immediate plans to grow. We want to understand the true potential environmental, operational, and cultural impacts before any decision about growth is made.
