SUMMARY:Forest & Fire Learning Series: In Our Backyard – Community Preparedness & Seasonal Outlooks
DESCRIPTION:In Our Backyard – Community Preparedness & Seasonal Outlooks: To wrap up the Forest & Fire Learning Series\, we will learn about local wildfire resources and mitigation efforts with Alex Graf and Gem Boone. Alex will cover some of the many programs and services offered by Wildfire Adapted Partnership (WAP) while Gem shares her experience as a neighborhood ambassador for the Elk Steam Ranch in the East Canyon Community. Her powerful story will outline the coordinated and community-wide response to the East Canyon Fire in the summer of 2020 – by the time Gem received her emergency alert text with the mandatory evacuation order\, the entire community was mostly through its evacuation plan\, phone-trees were completed\, livestock was loaded\, and Gem herself was already driving out of the community with all of her belongings.  Brad Pietruszka will conclude the evening with a presentation that shows seasonal outlooks for both wildfire and prescribed fire across the San Juan National Forest and surrounding areas for 2021. Brad will explain the concept of fire “debt”\, or the amount of fire that is missing from a landscape\, what that means in our changing climate\, and the two paths we can take to prepare for its’ inevitable return. \nSpeakers \n• Alex Graf: Montezuma County Coordinator\, Wildfire Adapted Partnership \n• Gem Boone: Neighborhood Ambassador\, East Canyon Community \n• Brad Pietruszka: Fuels Program Manager\, San Juan National Forest\, USDA Forest Service \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLivestream on Mountain Studies Institute YouTube page and Facebook at 6pm. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMore about the series: \nSince 2017\, the San Juan Mountains of Southwest Colorado have experienced exceptional drought and fire alongside record snowpack and swollen rivers. In response to community concerns regarding these climatic fluctuations across our landscape\, MSI and partners began the Forest & Fire Learning Series in the spring of 2018. For the past three years\, this lecture series has offered information and resources to how we\, as a community\, can better understand and approach local climatic changes using the best available science and landscape expertise to promote both ecological and community resilience. \nThere are many increasingly relevant conversations to address\, one of which is the context of historical fire regimes – though 2021 may not prove to be an intense fire year\, impacts from climate change suggest that fire events with increased frequency will occur. As our community continues to experience the fluctuations in climatic extremes alongside the consequences of more than a century of wildfire suppression throughout the West\, we must discuss what it means to cultivate community resilience within the context of the forest ecology of the San Juan Mountains\, historical fire regimes\, and societal relationships to wildfire.

SUMMARY:Forest & Fire Learning Series: Adapting to the Unprecedented
DESCRIPTION:Adapting to the Unprecedented \nFor our 3rd evening\, Emily Hohman will be explaining how 2020 was a challenging fire year across the US\, with significant wildfire impacts and reductions in prescribed fire activity in some regions. Despite these challenges\, many prescribed fire practitioners successfully worked with their communities and collaboratives to innovate solutions and put good\, beneficial fire on the ground. Emily will look back at lessons learned and key successes from across the US Fire Learning Network before we look forward at strategies for success in 2021\, including the on-going prescribed fire partnership with the San Juan National Forest. Lo Williams will follow up with a conversation about the challenges and successes of 2020 brought to the San Juan National Forest (SJNF). These include human impacts due to increased use of national lands as well as project accomplishment thanks to innovative strategies\, strong community engagement\, and support from local collaboratives. With lessons learned from 2020\, Lo will share the foundations that were laid this past winter to prepare for the 2021 field season and how the SJNF and its partners are planning for the future. \nSpeakers  \n• Emily Hohman: Fire Learning Network Manager\, North America Fire\, The Nature Conservancy \n• Lo Williams: Partnership and Public Affairs Specialist\, USDA Forest Service \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLivestream on Mountain Studies Institute YouTube page and Facebook at 6pm. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMore about the series:\n\n\n\n\nSince 2017\, the San Juan Mountains of Southwest Colorado have experienced exceptional drought and fire alongside record snowpack and swollen rivers. In response to community concerns regarding these climatic fluctuations across our landscape\, MSI and partners began the Forest & Fire Learning Series in the spring of 2018. For the past three years\, this lecture series has offered information and resources to how we\, as a community\, can better understand and approach local climatic changes using the best available science and landscape expertise to promote both ecological and community resilience. \nThere are many increasingly relevant conversations to address\, one of which is the context of historical fire regimes – though 2021 may not prove to be an intense fire year\, impacts from climate change suggest that fire events with increased frequency will occur. As our community continues to experience the fluctuations in climatic extremes alongside the consequences of more than a century of wildfire suppression throughout the West\, we must discuss what it means to cultivate community resilience within the context of the forest ecology of the San Juan Mountains\, historical fire regimes\, and societal relationships to wildfire. The relationships and responses people have to wildfire can be complex and multi-faceted\, which is why MSI aims to include what varying areas of science have to say about fire\, forests\, and community resilience. \nTo continue exploring these ideas\, MSI is preparing for its 4th annual Forest & Fire Learning Series with the intent to educate and engage our community. This livestream e-vent will feature a Q&A session following presentations that cover topics of fire adapted communities\, the connection between wildfires and water\, adaptations to COVID19\, wildfire smoke and air quality\, local seasonal outlooks for 2021\, and personal stories of living with fire. Because engagement with a virtual audience is important\, interactive questions will be posed throughout the event to encourage a sense of connection and better understand how to reach community members online. Analytics resulting from these questions and the e-vent as a whole will be drafted in a 1-2 page document and shared with partners\, sponsors\, and local government officials\, and posted to MSI’s website. \nWe invite you to join the conversation\, ask questions\, and help to inform a community approach to living with fire.

He will also suggest some policies the city and county might initiate to accelerate local investing as a stimulus for jump starting the economy from COVID-19 shutdowns. \nA growing number of Americans are nervous about the Wall Street roller coaster and are looking for ways to invest their hard-earned life savings closer to home. Many assume that their pension funds can only be invested in global stocks and bonds. But as Michael Shuman shows\, everyone can move their money from Wall Street to Main Street using self-directed IRAs and solo 401ks. In this appearance\, Shuman will show how Durango residents can invest their pension funds in getting out debt\, becoming home owners\, installing solar energy systems\, fortifying local businesses and nonprofits\, and underwriting municipal projects. \nRegistration is required for Virtual GBR using the link below.  If you have an announcement to make during Virtual GBR\, give us a heads up by emailing info@sanjuancitizens.org.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” overlay_strength=”0.3″ shape_divider_position=”bottom”][vc_column centered_text=”true” column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_link_target=”_self” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][nectar_btn size=”small” open_new_tab=”true” button_style=”regular” button_color_2=”Accent-Color” icon_family=”none” url=”https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZIucOqgpjMiHdCYb4xUp8G4A8-iZ9j3gSpJ” text=”Register”][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:MSI Forest & Fire Learning Series- Moving Forward
DESCRIPTION:MOVING FORWARD \nLearn about the social implications of post-fire landscape recovery and La Plata County’s Community Planning Assistance for Wildfire (CPAW) with Dr. Chad Kooistra (Wildfire Management Research Project Lead\, Public Lands Policy Group\, Colorado State University) and Alison Layman (Planner I\, La Plata County). \n  \n\n  \nSince 2017\, the San Juan Mountains of Southwest Colorado have experienced exceptional drought and fire alongside record snowpack and swollen rivers. In response to community concerns regarding these climatic fluctuations across our landscape\, MSI and partners began the Forest & Fire Learning Series in spring of 2018. For the past two years\, this lecture series offered information and resources to how we\, as a community\, can better understand and approach local climatic changes using the best available science and landscape expertise to promote both ecological and community resilience. \nWhile 2020 may provide adequate snowpack and spring runoff\, there are many increasingly relevant conversations to address. One of these is the context of historical fire regimes – though 2020 may not prove to be an intense fire year\, impacts from climate change suggest that fire events with increased frequency will occur. As our community continues to experience the fluctuations in climatic extremes alongside the consequences of more than a century of wildfire suppression throughout the West\, we must discuss what it means to cultivate community resilience within the context of the forest ecology of the San Juan Mountains\, historical fire regimes\, and societal relationships to wildfire. Indeed\, the relationships and responses people have to wildfire can be complex and multi-faceted\, which is why MSI aims to include what varying areas of science\, such as ecology\, tourism\, and sociology\, have to say about fire\, forests\, communities\, and resilience. \nTo continue exploring these ideas\, MSI is preparing for its 3rd annual Forest & Fire Learning Series on it’s Facebook page with the intent to educate and engage our community in this time of social and physical distancing. The overarching theme of this series will be resilience: historical resilience to wildfire in our forests\, management techniques used to improve ecosystem and community resilience\, resilience and tourism\, and the importance of building a culture that accepts living with wildfire. Each evening will offer two livestream presentations followed by Q&A from viewers in Facebook.

SUMMARY:Durango Oil and Gas Public Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Stand up for New Oil and Gas Protections\nAfter nearly a decade in the making\, Colorado passed major oil and gas reforms in 2019 affirming that its agency\, the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (COGCC)\, will place health\, safety\, and the environment before industry profits. \nNow\, the COGCC is holding a series of upcoming rulemakings required by these legislative reforms. These rulemakings will create new policies surrounding the COGCC’s new mission\, alternative location analysis\, and cumulative impacts analysis. \nThe COGCC is hosting a stakeholder outreach meeting in Durango on Friday February 21st to provide an overview of these rulemakings and take public comment. Your voice is critical to the outcome of these new rules- come tell the COGCC that Coloradans want new oil and gas policies that prioritize health\, safety\, and the environment! \nBackground Information\nTo fulfill their new mission\, the COGCC is updating the rules and regulations governing the oil and gas industry. The COGCC was also directed to create and implement two new forms of analysis that will ensure their permitting decisions fully account for the protection of our health and safety\, the environment\, and wildlife. \nThese analyses are known as Alternative Location Analysis\, which requires operators to propose alternative locations for development that will minimize impacts to health\, safety\, and the environment\, and Cumulative Impacts\, which requires the COGCC to take a holistic view of the impacts of drilling in the immediate\, short\, and long term to a wide range of topics related to health\, safety\, the environment\, and wildlife. \nTips For Public Comment\nTell the COGCC who you are and where you live\, and be sure to personalize your comments! You are an expert on your own story- talk about why you care about this issue and how you are personally impacted. \nTalking Points: \n\n\n\nAll rules must be statewide in order to protect all Coloradans. We oppose any basin specific exceptions\, as both urban and residential impacts should be considered. \n\n\nAll rulemakings must prioritize protecting health\, safety\, the environment\, and wildlife over corporate interests\n\n\n\nMission Statement: Key Messages \n\nImpacted people and communities deserve access and adequate notice to be involved and influential in the permitting process.\nEnvironmental resources\, including wildlife and habitat\, such as riparian areas\, and public water supplies and groundwater should be strongly protected.\n\nAlternative Location Analysis: Key message \n\nAlternative Location Analysis should carefully evaluate locations that push development into communities with already high levels of pollution and density of oil and gas development.\n\nCumulative Impact Analysis: Key message \n\nThe Cumulative Impact analysis should include an evaluation of greenhouse gas emissions and effects on climate change from oil and gas development

SUMMARY:PRC Public Input Hearing - SJGS
DESCRIPTION:The NM Public Regulation Commission (PRC) will be holding a public input session in order to give residents of San Juan County an opportunity to share their opinions regarding the abandonment of San Juan Generating Station. PRC Chairperson Theresa Becenti-Aguilar will use the hearing as an opportunity to receive comments from her constituents in the Four Corners. \nMonday\, January 6\, 4-6 pm\nSan Juan College \nHenderson Fine Arts Building\, Room 9008\n4601 College Blvd. Farmington\, NM 87402\n  \nOne of the key issues at play is whether or not the Energy Transition Act (ETA) applies to PNM’s abandonment of SJGS. The ETA provides roughly $40 million of economic support to the region\, including for severance packages and retraining opportunities to current plant and mine workers. Come voice your support for the Energy Transition Act and the economic aid it offers to our region as our state transitions to a more sustainable energy economy!
