...But the Southern Utah Wilderness Alliance (SUWA) argued the BLM's so-called non-binding determination cuts the public out of the decision-making and sets a precedent that could affect wilderness-quality lands.

SUWA spokeswoman Heidi McIntosh likened the move to the Trojan horse. While she agreed improving Bald Knoll Road wouldn't be something SUWA would protest, it could ultimately set precedent for allowing the administrative decisions on roads in more environmentally sensitive areas.

Haha!! That is excellent news, hopefully that sets the precedence for future battles.

Funny how SUWA thinks it is alright for the BLM to make an administrative decision and cut the public out when they are trying to close roads.
