at 1:15P). They will talk about wildlife area plans, the pilot grazing
program, land acquisition programs, and way too much more. Room 172 is
at the end of the short hallway that branches east from the main lobby.

drops you at the Oly Transit Center. The Natural Resources Building is
the 4-6 story curved building facing downtown.
