We request that the 979.38 acres listed in the Valley West Disposal Area within Red Rock Canyon be removed from the disposable classification in compliance with alternative 2 of the Fall 2014 BLM draft RMP/EIS planning document.
The lands listed within the Disposal Area are a significant part of the visual resource of the Conservation Area. The 979.38 acres are also of significant environmental concern relative to the flora, fauna, air quality, and soil resources of Red Rock Canyon. We believe that development of the land currently listed as disposable within Red Rock Canyon would degrade the quality of a National resource.

Those of us that enjoy the beauty and serenity of Red Rock don't want to be reminded of the big city by seeing homes overlooking the conservation area and as a horseback rider we have precious few trails as is and can't risk losing any more ground.
I visit Red Rocks for both personal and professional climbing reasons. During those periods, I contribute to the local economy and benefit greatly from the solace and beauty the place provides. Please do not diminish this solace and beauty.
I am a regular visitor to Red Rock Canyon and consider this to be a beautiful, natural, public place to be available to all. Not just a backyard attraction for a few homes. Maintain a REAL buffer between the city and these natural lands.
The lands in the identified disposal area should be added to Red Rocks, thus not only protecting the atmosphere and visual values citizens cherish there but adding undeniable dramatic views of Red Rocks and enjoyment of these land's natural environment.
This area is NOT "disposable! YOU can see that it is preserved free from development of ANY kind. Pour open lands are disappearing at an alarming rate! SLOW down! And think before it's too late! Once gone, the untouched lands can NEVER be restored.
Save red rock our crown jewel. It's precious and unique.
There is plenty of land to build houses on in Nevada without taking away from Red Rocks.

Building here would ruin the value of the park as a wilderness experience and as a wildlife habitat. The building would destroy the open scenery and eliminate essential space for animals and plants to proliferate in susdtainable balance.
