The Obama Administration designated nearly 600 million acres, an area five times the size of California, onshore and offshore as national monuments. These include multiple inappropriately massive designations on public lands that will negatively impact access for all sorts of multiple uses including recreation. While ARRA and others will continue to work to protect access in those areas already designated, especially the Monuments created in the last few days of Obama's Presidency, it remains important to curb the unilateral authority to make designations that has been abused by previous Administrations.
