public lands op-ed

Today's (Oct. 22) Spokesman-Review has an interesting op-ed piece about
legislation (S-1151) sponsored by Sens. Conrad Burns and Larry Craig to
create a National Land Commission.
According to the author, Charles Levndosky, editorial page editor of the Casper
Star-Tribune in Wyoming, this bill would "take BLM, Forest Service and Bureau
of Reclamation Lands from the American public and sell or trade them to
private interests."
I'd be interested in learning more about this bill. Has anyone seen an
analysis of its provisions by any of the national environmental groups?

thanks,
Kenton
