HJM 4029: Olympic Nat. Park biosphere

Regarding the Olympic National Park as a Biosphere Reserve within the Man and Biosphere Program.

Summary

  • The memorial notes that the land in Washington included in a biosphere reserve was not included at the request of or with the consent of the Legislature and asserts that a request from the National Park Service should not be adequate to nominate land in the state as a biosphere reserve.
