Attention ASLA members; Roxanne Blackwell, Director of Federal Government Affairs, at the American Society of Landscape Architects, asks RLAs to support the bi-partisan LWCF bill, recently introduced to Senate. Blackwell reports in an email to members, ''Senators Max Baucus (D-MT) and Richard Burr (R-NC) have introduced S. 338, The Land and Water Conservation Authorization and Funding Act of 2013, which would fully fund the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) at no additional cost to taxpayers. Please take a moment to ask your Senators to support the LWCF.'' The LWCF was established in 1965, and is paid for with receipts from offshore oil and natural gas. With nearly a 50-year history of bipartisan support, the LWCF has been used in every state and county in the nation to protect public lands, create state and local parks, and other outdoor recreational spaces. The Baucus bill includes an additional provision to fund sportsmen's access to public lands. Landscape architects across the country access LWCF funds to plan and design local parks, trails, and other critical recreational facilities, thus helping communities live healthier lifestyles, provide economic development, and create local jobs. For more information about the LWCF, please visit nps.gov/lwcf/. Association news and events are listed at landscapearchitect.com.
