An update on CARNEGIE:

Carnegie to stay OPEN until 1/11/2010, pending further legal action.

Today a huge rally took place at CARNEGIE State Vehicle Recreation Area. Hundreds of OHV enthusiasts were on hand, as well as the news media. It appears to have been a great success!

Now, an update:

Effective TODAY, late in the afternoon, the APPEALS COURT (for this jurisdiction) GRANTED a STAY in our favor, and the park will NOT BE CLOSED – at least until January 11, 2009, pending the accepted appeal put forth by State Parks/OHMVRD.

This opens all kinds of doors for new information to be submitted to the court, including Lawrence Livermore Lab Site 300 (EPA Superfund Site) and Hetch Hetchy Water (and the slamming they got from the very same Central Valley Water Quality Control Board). Additionally, the Tesla Mine (the first working coal mine in CA) can be introduced as evidence for pollutants, as well as other water quality testing that we can do to dispute what PEER & SFA supplied. Also, all discovery and forced documentation of claims made by the Plaintiffs. (All of this information was ignored by the original Judge.) This now allows testimony by the CVWQCB to be subpoenaed, and they can tell the appeals court that they IN FACT have been working side by side with State Parks for resolution to the issues, going back at least eight years.

Check your D36 membership cards – does your membership expire 10/05 ?

As per earlier posted notices – there weren’t any October renewal notices mailed out, due to an equipment failure.

If your membership expires 10/31/05 you have two options left – renew online using a credit card (go to D36 Info/Join/Register On-line with your credit card (fastest response), or renew your membership at the next race you attend. (You will need to allow extra time in the sign up lines and have extra checks or cash with you to do so.)

Having an actual receipt with you is the only way you can verify to the sign up crew that your membership has been renewed and is current. If you are inadvertently allowed to race on an expired membership, there are penalties – refer to the D36 rule book.

There is not enough processing time left for you to print a blank application and mail it in. Going to an event and claiming the “But, I mailed it in” excuse is not valid – you must have a receipt or actual current membership card in your possession at sign ups. Again, do not print the blank application and mail it in, it is too late – you will have no receipt to prove you renewed your membership. If you don’t have your membership card or valid receipt with you at sign ups, you will be required to buy another membership – either a one-day $10 one, or a full $30 one.

Do not forget to log in to your message board account to update your correct District 36 Number and DOB. The deadline is 10/31 before accounts with invalid numbers will be purged from the system. Login here.
