Statement:

FROM THE STATE OF IDAHO Mr. Hansen. Thank you very much, Senator. I'm here to demon strate my support for this effort by Chairman McClure and the Government and the people for their input. And this is, I think, in the spirit of trying to determine what the people of Idaho feel should be done with the particular lands that are in a state of some controversy at this point, and I think it's a very good exercise, Senator, and I commend you for this. It is a marathon, it's difficult, and I regret that I won't be able to stay very long because of a scheduled conflict. And we have other things that have been pro gramed in the area, but I can assure you that I'll meet with you for the wrap up when you get back to Washington. And we'll hie read ing the transcripts and replies of any of those participants here today who wish to send a copy of their remarks to my office, also, so we'll have it in our files. 571 We'll do everything we can to cooperate and be sure that this is a joint Idaho effort in Washington. Thank you, Senator.
