Statement:
Mr. Kelson. Senator and Committee, I'm Leroy Kelson. I'm a third generation, and I've lived in Bonners Ferry for all my life. I've been in business myself for 20 years. I think you've heard the statements that I would like to present at this time, and I would like to have my written statement entered into the evidence. And attached to it here is a petition with 110 names of people who could not make it to this hearing this morning, and their recommendation is no further wilderness, no further studies, and to get on with the job at hand, and I thank you.
