I am 100% opposed to the proposal to create natural asset
companies. This is an existential threat to national security, and an
overreach a federal power over constitutional states rights. This also
threatens our nations ability to secure necessary resources in the
future. Do not approve this.

?Turning overland management to NACs in their investors, leaving
local stakeholders, landowners, and land managers out of the
decision-making process is not only impractical, but violates
standing, law, and policy. ?Only Congress and state legislatures can
assign management authority for their public lands.
