Good morning, i call this hearing to order. We will hold a hearing on the impact of federal environmental regulations and policies on American Farming and ranching communities. The discussion here today is not about the value of environmental regulations but about how some federal regulations can be inflexible, antiquated, duplicative and ultimately harmful to american agriculture, a critical part of our nations economy. Members of this committee should work to ensure environmental laws are strong and effective without being overly burdensome. This is often a difficult task. The United States is blessed that our ecosystems require different kinds of stewardship to remain healthy. In wyoming we have an abundance of prosperity and in forest, a variety of mountain habitats. Wyoming ranchers and farmers are familiar with the ecosystem and its need. This is where they work, live and invest their energy. Farmers and ranchers are the original stewards and understand landscapes and watersheds
