the forest service reported that they treated 744 acres of land when in fact only 173 acres had been treated. if the forest service were treating at the order of magnitude they need to be treating, these numbers wouldn't matter. but i think inflating the numbers is just a way to try to cover up the inadequate management that's happening. instead of talking about hundreds of acres, we need to be talking about thousands and tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands of acres being treated. this kind of reporting means that the forest service suggested to congress and the public that they are doing as much as four times more work than they had actually accomplished. this is this is absolutely unacceptable where wildfire risks are extremely high. this legislation requires the forest service to submit data to congress that by accounting each individual acre once even if multiple treatments were perform. this idea has been supported in reports from accountability office and usda's office of inspector general. the fact we need to pass legislation to tell the forest service to count the way

the airport consists of 1700 acres, approximately 600 acres are in direct aviation utilization. the remainder of the area is 400 acres of highly industrial tracts. the remainder is for future developing. we have roughly 40 industries located on the airport at the present time, a varied and different types. last year our survey indicated there were $17 million worth of payroll on this airport. even though the advantage airports is often acknowledged, one of the leading obstacles has been objection, real or imagined, about the airports and airplanes impact on the environment. former astronaut and now environmentalist wally schirra has spoken out on this subject. i decided to look for another area of interest. the environment seem to be one where we hadn't really paid much attention. we've had a lot of rhetoric, a lot of talk. i would look at the land as a land use. what have we taken away from the land in the sense of do we take prime grazing land, a prime bottom land that would be used for farming? well, that would be a no no in today's logic. so would look from that way. we look

the other (indiscernible) is 300 acres of open space and parks.y, it's the largest addition to the park system in san francisco since (indiscernible) 300 acres and this is a tremendous gift to the public, both the housing, which we desperately need in san francisco as well as an open space and park system which really is going to be worm class and it will attract people in san francisco but attract people locally as well as internationally. >> cmg architecture was brought to the project once they award the agreement between the city of san francisco and the united states navy. cmg has earned national recognition and numerous awards for merits and design, social impact and environmental stewardship. >> we were a part of the project in the beginning when the developer initially was awarded the exclusive negotiation agreement or the ena with the city and they partnered with the planning and architecture group and we joined that team to work with the developer around the city and community to come up with a plan for treasure island. >> so there's quit

eating thousands of acres, ruining the alfalfa, consuming small grains, stripping the trees, shrubs in shelter belts, devouring the vegetative cover from office land, laying it bare, thus grasshoppers in the throes set the stage for disaster without cover on the ground, life giving topsoil was blown away. ultimately, the nation struggled the dust bowl. today we look back on a record of staggering losses grasshoppers have accounted for hundreds of millions of dollars in crop damage. grasshopper damage is not limited to any single crop or area farmers. the country of all the grasshopper as a migrate a voracious feeder not too fussy about its diet. during severe outbreaks, they devour entire fields of small grains. they like cotton, particularly the young plants and corn, including the stalk and hay crops, especially alfalfa. they also sweet clover and grasses. after destroying the crops, they attack the trees. the plague follows a natural pattern set before biblical times. as this farmer is discovering, grasshoppers go for the most vulnerable parts of the plant. they bite off grain heads

remember everybody had two to five acres. so as the families as a children grew in the families and came into adulthood. their parents had this huge plot of land. and so what happened a lot was that they built another house on the land back farther from the first house so you could see the original house there and then you could see like a ranch house farther back and maybe another house beyond that because there's so much land that they had that they built so they were able to keep families kind of in the neighborhood a lot, but they're single-family homes. they're not retirement communities or anything like that. would you rather live in a cold patch community or in a subsistence homestead community? this is a big debate now because remember that building that norveldt community sounded like socialism to a lot of people and so there's a lot of resistance to it. but the there were 250 homes they were well over a thousand families who tried to get into those homes. it was very high demand. so even though all of the local pape

we manage 155 million acres for grazing. we have seen that is key to success of this rule and particular conservation leasing as an opportunity for ranchers to work with entities who may be providing funding that they are undertaking but maybe formerly set out as an additional income pixton this issue ringing additional income is really important as we look at the statistics. they are many ranchers and farmers who don't make a profit on their land. consolidated so that issue is important to them. what about future permits and lisa's? will this affect future grazing? >> the rule itself doesn't look at it one way or the other. what it looks like -- looks at us grazing practices can be one aspect and we are trying to set up the framework. >> i'm looking at page 19,591 where you do state it's not intended to preclude uses such as grazing mining and recreation and it would not disturb existing authorizations or state or turtle land use management. you have that in there as you discuss the rule and i think making sure you can poin

the farmer owning 200 acres between the enormous estate, owning thousands of acres.you create acres. and therefore you create a false market in farmland as one example, which you would get rid of and potentially an aim in the alternative investment market which you would get rid of if you got rid of a couple of inheritance tax , which would inheritance tax, which would lead to a better allocation of capital towards more productive assets. >> well, i think the far greater distortion of land values is through the planning system. surely you know, you get an acre of farmland might be worth £5,000. it gets planning permission . it's suddenly worth permission. it's suddenly worth £1 million. i mean, that's a real big distortion. but when it comes to family businesses , you comes to family businesses, you know, there is a way where you keep a family business going and without it being destroyed by death duties, which is to incorporate it and you know, it has the business or the land, the farming business or any other business. it has a life of its own and it's only the sha

so far this year, we're at 254,000 acres. that is above last year when it was extremely dry, but we are still well below what's average of over a million acres, even though we do not have drought conditions. across the state, we saw the drought shifting across parts of the south, and so here in california no longer in a drought, and just abnormally dry in a few places farther north and south. so as we head into the weekend, still watching out for that possibility that we could see more acreage burn, but the weather has been nice and mild, and temperatures are in the low 90s heading into the inland areas. the temperatures peak on monday and then come back down. the good thing is that we don't see any extreme heat or any gusty winds. san francisco heads for the low 70s. >>> mike, you're still tracking a couple of issues in the east bay. >> we're recovering from this, northbound 880, the disabled vehicle has finally made its way off at 29th or been assisted off. the ripple back toward the approach to the coliseum still shows slo

and so one thing i think you could do is, there's 640 million acres of federal land, mostly in nevada, california, and alaska. you could take 1% of that, which was 6.4 million acres, and lease it out to companies that provide energy and i think that would be, you know, for that area of the country, solar panels, maybe wind, possibly modular, nuclear plant, and generate electricity in those areas, california is going to need more energy as they go more electric vehicles. this would raise a lot of revenue, it would create job, you wouldn't have to raise taxes, you wouldn't cut any programs, but it would be a way for the federal government to take unused assets and then generate something positive with it. host: what do you think, congressman? guest: thank you for that. i have advocated for a listening time for the federal government in my own state of arizona, the fifth largest state geotbraskly in this nation, and it's huge. it's a huge state. land is only about 18% to 20% of that land is in private ownership. including swaths of land where people are just holding onto land, there's no

the high plains became a dust bowl covering 100,000,000 acres of land. many believed the day of judgment had arrived and the world was coming to an end. and in a sense, the worst environmental disaster in american history was a judgment. [haunting wind bellows] the farmers of the dust bowl knew there was water underground. they used to say they could feel it moving beneath their feet but they couldn't reach it. it was only in the '40s that geologists worked out that they were sitting on enough water to submerge the entire state of colorado, to a depth of 45 feet. they called it the ogallala aquifer, one of the biggest underground reservoirs of fresh water in the world. the water contained between layers of clay, silt, sand and gravel has been there since the last ice age. and there was enough of it to fill lake huron. under the high plains, the ogallala reaches out for 175,000 square miles from the texas panhandle to south dakota. the wooden windmill pumps used by the early settlers made little impression on the massive reserves of water which lay undern
