“It comes from the state, the state NACO. And just a couple other things. I talked to Sal from Ruby Rose today. He said he thought I have the growth project done today. So that's good news. I don't know how he could grind those stumps that quick, but that's what he said he was going to do.”

“And they cut the power pole down. They cut the power pole down?”

“The neighbors are all upset that you cut all the trees down and there's a vacated power pole there. So whacked it. And then the other thing I've been trying to do this for more than a month. But Delmo is going to be leaving here shortly and he's our Nevada NACO representative. So do we have to have an agenda item on who we replace Delmo with?”

“Can you get that on the agenda? Because They start meeting pretty rarely, as I recall, in November. They only have one meeting in December, and that's in Las Vegas. And I really want the replacement to be there where Domo can introduce them. I haven't been relying on Domo, and I haven't been going very often. I do the WIRs and”

“And that's, that's not the plan though, Travis. And I was pretty adamant about that. We want to take them off the local County ranges.”

“Well, if, if we have enough, it's the letter itself says Northern Nevada, preferably Elko County. And I did that on purpose because I want to help our ranchers by getting those horses off. And if this pilot program proves successful, then maybe someday we can start taking them out of the holding facilities also.”

“And to your point about massaging the letter, I don't think it's necessary at this time. We're just asking them to consider that MOU and allow us at the table. And I think that's the time when we can work out those details. And we're done with the discussion. I'll make the motion that we approve this letter, and I'd like to send that fire map with it. I forgot to include this, but I took that screenshot of watch duty on August 26th. I think it's important to include that. Those were the fires that were occurring at 6.30 in the morning on August 26th. And then I'd like to send that to the…”

“Well, the only response I can make to that is, in my opinion, that's just fear-mongering. You've got some fear that something might happen. I mean, how can you argue with that? That's our job to monitor the program and make adjustments as needed and make sure that it does not happen. That's our job.”

“William, that was not the question. I'm taking that as a no. You're not willing to support the AMLs as they exist.”

“That's all we need. You've had your chance. Okay, I'd like to address a couple other things too. Well, I think it was Marlo that asked what have we done since 2024. He did send hundreds of letters to the timber companies. They just did not respond. So that shot that plan down. So it's not like we did nothing or he did nothing. And I want to respond to what Dimar said. That was when the Small Business Administration was here a month or so ago. They were talking about the economics of this problem, and that was raised at that meeting. And I just did some quick math. We have 60,000 horses in…”

“No, I am too, and I think that's what creates a lot of the distrust of this proposed pilot program is the mixed messages from the Wild Horse Fire Brigade. That concerns me also. Okay. Well, again... It concerns me also, but the bottom line, I feel... I wanna do something to try to help. And if we have a seat at the table, I feel we can guide it. And so I'm still gonna support the plan. I understand everybody's concern.”
