America, Why I Love Her

You ask me why I love her? Give me time and I'll explain;
Have you seen a Kansas sunset, or an Arizona rain?
Have you drifted on a bayou down Louisiana way?
Have you seen the cold fog drift over San Francisco Bay?

Have you heard a Bobwhite calling in the Carolina pines,
Or the bellow of a diesel in the Appalachian mines?
Does the call of the Niagara thrill you when you hear her waters roar,
Do you look with awe and wonder at her Massachusetts shore
where men who braved a hard new world first stepped on Plymouth's rock?
Do you think of them when you stroll along New York city dock?

Have you seen a snowflake drifting in the Rockies, way up high?
Have you seen the sun come blazing down from a bright Nevada sky?
Do you hail to the Columbia as she rushes to the sea?
Do you bow your head at Gettysburg at our struggle to be free?

Have you seen the mighty Tetons? Have you watched an eagle soar?
Have you seen the Mississippi roll along Missouri's shore?
Have you felt a chill at Michigan, when on a winter's day
her waters raged along the shore in thunderous display?

Does the word 'Aloha' make you warm?
Do you stare in disbelief when you see the surf come roaring in at Waiamea reef?
From Alaska's cold to the everglades, from the Rio Grande to Maine,
My heart cries out, my pulse runs fast at the might of her domain.

You ask me why I love her? I've a million reasons why --
My beautiful America, beneath God's wide, wide sky.

The Dam Notice  





This is  an actual letter sent to a man named Ryan DeVries regarding a pond on his  property. It was sent by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental  Quality, State of Pennsylvania . This guy's response is hilarious, but  read the State's letter before you get to the response letter.  



SUBJECT:  DEQ File No.97-59-0023; T11N; R10W, Sec. 20; Lycoming   County


Dear Mr.  DeVries:

It has come to the attention of the Department of  Environmental Quality that there has been recent unauthorized activity on  the above referenced parcel of property. You have been certified as the  legal landowner and/or contractor who did the following unauthorized  activity: Construction and maintenance of two wood debris dams across the  outlet stream of Spring Pond.


A permit must be issued prior to  the start of this type of activity. A review of the Department's files  shows that no permits have been issued. Therefore, the Department has  determined that this activity is in violation of Part 301, Inland Lakes  and Streams, of the Natural Resource and Environmental Protection Act, Act  451 of the Public Acts of 1994, being sections 324.30101 to 324.30113 of  the Pennsylvania Compiled Laws, annotated.


The Department has  been informed that one or both of the dams partially failed during a  recent rain event, causing debris and flooding at downstream locations.  


We find that dams of this nature are inherently hazardous and  cannot be permitted.

The Department therefore orders you to cease  and desist all activities at this location, and to restore the stream to a  free-flow condition by removing all wood and brush forming the dams from  the stream channel. All restoration work shall be completed no later than  January 31, 2008
.  

Please notify  this office when the restoration has been completed so that a follow-up  site inspection may be scheduled by our staff. Failure to comply with this  request or any further unauthorized activity on the site may result in  this case being referred for elevated enforcement action.. We anticipate  and would appreciate your full cooperation in this matter. Please feel  free to contact me at this office if you have any questions.  

Sincerely,

David L. Price
District Representative and  Water Management Division.


Here is  the actual response sent back by Mr. DeVries:  


Re: DEQ  File No. 97-59-0023; T11N; R10W, Sec. 20; Lycoming County

Dear Mr.  Price,

Your certified letter dated 11/25/07 has been handed to me  to respond to.
I am the legal landowner but not the Contractor at 2088  Dagget Lane , Trout Run, Pennsylvania .

A couple of beavers are in  the (State unauthorized) process of constructing and maintaining two wood  "debris" dams across the outlet stream of my Spring Pond. While I did not  pay for, authorize, nor supervise their dam project, I think they would be  highly offended that you call their skillful use of natures building  materials "debris."

I would like to challenge your department to  attempt to emulate their dam project any time and/or any place you choose.  I believe I can safely state there is no way you could ever match their  dam skills, their dam resourcefulness, their dam ingenuity, their dam  persistence, their dam determination and/or their dam work ethic.  



These are the  beavers/contractors you are seeking. As to your request, I do not think  the beavers are aware that they must first fill out a dam permit prior to  the start of this type of dam activity.

My first dam question to  you is:

(1) Are you trying to discriminate against my Spring Pond  Beavers, or

(2) do you require all beavers throughout this State  to conform to said dam request?

If you are not discriminating  against these particular beavers, through the Freedom of Information Act,  I request completed copies of all those other applicable beaver dam  permits that have been issued.

(Perhaps we will see if there  really is a dam violation of Part 301, Inland Lakes and Streams, of the  Natural Resource and Environmental
Protection Act, Act 451 of the  Public Acts of 1994, being sections 324.30101 to 324.30113 of the  Pennsylvania Compiled Laws, annotated.)

I have several concerns.  My first concern is, aren't the beavers entitled to legal representation?  The Spring Pond Beavers are financially destitute and are unable to pay  for said representation -- so the State will have to provide them with a  dam lawyer. The Department's dam concern that either one or both of the  dams failed during a recent rain event, causing flooding, is proof that  this is a natural occurrence, which the Department is required to protect.  In other words, we should leave the Spring Pond Beavers alone rather than  harassing them and calling them dam names.

If you want the stream  "restored" to a dam free-flow condition please contact the beavers -- but  if you are going to arrest them, they obviously did not pay any attention  to your dam letter, they being unable to read English.

In my  humble opinion, the Spring Pond Beavers have a right to build their  unauthorized dams as long as the sky is blue, the grass is green and water  flows downstream. They have more dam rights than I do to live and enjoy  Spring Pond. If the Department of Natural Resources and Environmental  Protection lives up to its name, it should protect the natural resources  (Beavers) and the environment (Beavers' Dams).

So, as far as the  beavers and I are concerned, this dam case can be referred for more  elevated enforcement action right now. Why wait until 1/31/2008? The  Spring Pond Beavers may be under the dam ice then and there will be no way  for you or your dam staff to contact/harass them.

In conclusion, I  would like to bring to your attention to a real environmental quality,  health, problem in the area. It is the bears! Bears are actually  defecating in our woods. I definitely believe you should be persecuting  the defecating bears and leave the beavers alone. If you are going to  investigate the beaver dam, watch your step! The bears are not careful  where they dump!

Being unable to comply with your dam request, and  being unable to contact you on your dam answering machine, I am sending  this response to your dam office.

THANK YOU,

RYAN DEVRIES  
& THE DAM BEAVERS
