New Statement from Trout Unlimited regarding Energy Bill

[bmbmd]

STATEMENT OF TROUT UNLIMITED CALLING ON THE SENATE TO FIX OR ELIMINATE
ENERGY BILL PROVISIONS HARMFUL TO FISH AND WILDLIFE.

Washington, D.C. – The sweeping Energy Bill, approved by the U.S. House of
Representatives yesterday and scheduled for consideration by the Senate
today, contains provisions harmful to fish and wildlife conservation
efforts across the nation. Specifically, Trout Unlimited opposes
provisions in the “Oil and Gas” and “Hydropower” sections because of their
adverse effects on trout and salmon habitat, and to the interests of fish
and wildlife conservationists. We call on the Senate to eliminate or fix
these provisions prior to final passage.
