Oregon dredging

[Reno badboy]

Just got a thing today about Oregon pushing for a new law upping out of state dredge permits going to $2,500. Wont be long and all dredges will be large paper-weights!!!What a great govt. we have here huh!?!

[gremlin]

i have been thinking about that. if there going to ban dredging. then what to do with a hole bunch of dredges. how about this, a water powered jet pack. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0snTqLQLpBA or making a jet boat out of the dredges. that would make a few mad quick.

THATS $2,500 PER COUNTY John

could you imagine what the outcry would be when this becomes(sooner or latter) the law of the land?? most people probly wouldnt even know about it untill they get cited!

If it were to get passed into law, I really doubt that it would pass a court challenge! Could you imagine if you had to pay a state per use fee on your car license. Driving to Cali to OR could cost you $2500.00 just to visit the state? Discrimination big time! Somebody just doesn't have a clue to write such a thing.

This just in from Tom Kitchar, president of the Waldo Mining District.
ALL:

In case you have not heard, Oregon SB 765 (Atkinson)has been recinded. Atkinson's office put the word out today.

I spoke with his aid Kyle, and was told it was recinded partly due to overwhelming opposition,and partly due to legal problems identified within the bill.

YES!!!!!!!!!
We can make a difference!!!!!!

One less headache!
Thanks to all - saves me another night of working on this piece of crap!
