Petition to Deny Permits for Transport of Massively
Oversized Equipment on U.S. Highway 12
We, the undersigned, strongly oppose the issuance of
permits to Exxon Mobil/Imperial Oil, Conoco Phillips and other corporations to
transport massively oversized, road-obstructing industrial equipment on U.S.
Highway 12.
These transports would degrade the intrinsic qualities
of the Northwest Passage Scenic Byway and All-American Road; impede the travel
of locals and visitors for pleasure, recreation, business, and emergencies;
potentially damage the road and bridges and accrue costs to American taxpayers;
pose a serious threat to a world-class fishery and wildlife corridor; and
severely impact the single growing industry of the U.S. 12 corridor:
travel/tourism.
Therefore, we the undersigned petition the Idaho
Transportation Department and Governor Otter to deny permits for the transport
of any and all such massively oversized, road-obstructing loads.
