Title
"Paradise Lost - to Recreational Bulldozing" radio episode
Description
An audio recording by Oregon Congressman Les AuCoin, in which he criticizes the granting of mining claims to amateur miners on government land. He notes that streambeds in the Siskiyou Wilderness and other places in Oregon were being degraded by gold mining operations, which provided little public benefit and great environmental harm. This is one episode from AuCoin's biweekly radio show on Jefferson Public Radio (JPR), which ran after he had retired from office. The majority of episodes feature his commentary on current political events, often focusing on issues important to southern Oregon where JPR is based. This episode aired on Dec. 5, 2001. The title is from a transcript.
