As a private U.S. citizen, I OPPOSE the proposal under consideration by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that would allow for creation and listing of a new type of company called a Natural Asset Company (NAC) on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE.) This would violate the precepts of the Public Trust Doctrine by divesting government due process over public land management decisions to international, corporate special interests. This will affect local economies and will interfere with municipal, state and federal authorities with no meaningful alternative for accountability and transparency. Furthermore, such implementation would lead to severe erosion of private property ownership rights for individual U.S. citizens like myself.
