2B Wednesday, March 2, 2011 Bulletin, Progressive, Record, Reporter VITAL ST/00TIS,TICS OBITUARY Shawn Patrick Webb Plumas County sher- iff's deputy Shawn Webb passed from this life to the next on Feb. 24, 2011, at his home in Meadow Valley. He was lovingly held in the arms of his wife, daughters and parents. Shawn had fought a valiant and coura- geous battle with cancer. Born May 7, 1973, iri San Diego, Shawn was raised in the town of Descanso. He graduated from Mountain Empire High School in 1991. Shawn was raised in the country with a gun in his hand and a love for shooting. He was a soccer player and skateboarder. If he wasn't in a hotrod, he was on his dirt bike in the desert. There wasn't a tractor in the area that went without his atten- tion. Shawn had a lifelong dream of becoming a police officer. After graduating from the police academy in 1995, he served the resi- dents of E1 Cajon as a mem- ber of the police department as a reserve for three years and then as a sworn officer starting in May 2000. In July 2008, Shawn began a career with the Plumas County Sheriff's Depart- ment, serving the residents of the county with kindness, compassion and purpose, af- fecting many on a level that is hard to comprehend. He earned respect from' those on both sides of the law. Shawn met Chrissy at age 11 in Descanso, and they loved each other for many years before getting married in 1995. They had two beauti- ful daughters together. They got the best part of him. Shawn had many friends who adored him because of his generous and comical na- ture. He considered all of his friends family. He was a lov- ing husband, father, son and friend. The memories he made whether touching or funny will resonate forever in all he knew. He leaves behind to carry on his legacy his wife of al- most 16 years, Chrissy; the pride of his life, his daugh- ters Courtney, 15, and Samantha, 13; and his father and step-mom, Tom and Sam Webb, of Descanso. He also leaves behind too many friends to count. We are bet- ter for having known him. He joins his mother MaryAnn in heaven. M Vl' 1 Mallery & Mallery Attorneys at.

After reviewing more than 9,000 comments made to the BLM since June 2010, Abbey said it became clear that fun- damental changes need to be made. "We need to move ahead with reforms'that build upon what's working in this pro- gram and move away from what is not," Abbey said. "We need to base our man- agement decisions on a foun- dation of good science, and we need to encourage and ex- pand our partnerships to help us in this program." Abbey said the BLM has asked the National Academy of Sciences to review the pro- gram and recommend ways to proceed with it. Abbey said the study would take roughly two years. Abbey said for the dura- tion of the study, the BLM would be reducing the num- ber of wild horses that it will be removing on an annual basis from 10,000 to about 7,600. Abbey said this would essentially maintain the cur- rent number of wild horses and burros on the range. "The only caveat to this might be if we have a drought or other emergency that would require the re- moval of more than the planned 7,600," Abbey said. Abbey said the BLM is also planning on significantly in- creasing the number of mares treated with fertility control drugs. Abbey said the BLM was looking to in- crease the number of mares from the 500 treated in 2009 to a target of 2,000 each year for the next two years. "This assumes sufficient budget allocations," Abbey said. "The ultimate goal is to make various fertility con- trol measures the primary means to maintain healthy population levels." Abbey said the BLM plans to work closely with the Hu- mane Society of the United States to implement and monitor the efforts. Within the next 30 days, Abbey said the BLM was planning on releasing the specific steps necessary for members of the public to fol- • low if they're interested in providing long-term care for any of the wild horses re- moved during the next two years. Abbey Said the BLM will also be partnering with the Mustang Heritage Foufida- tion to increase the number of adoptions from the BLM's estimated 3,000 it plans to adopt out this year to more than 4,000. Public Affairs Officer with the BLM Northern Califor- nia District Jeff Fontana said there was no way of knowing just yet how this will affect the lands managed I J Honey Lake Vaileyl00 Headstones & Cemetery Supplies • [  [ -:: Head Stones -.'{ Monuments ,t, -.,..

"We tentatively have something we're working on for High Rock Canyon, which is out of the Nevada part of the area managed by our office out of Cedarville," Fontana said, "but we're not sure about that yet." Fontana said the last time the Eagle Lake Field Office conducted a round up was during a six-week period in August and September of 2010, when crews captured 1,637 wild horses and re- moved 1,579 from around the Twin Peaks range, which Fontana said basically ex- tends from the base of the Skedaddle Mountain all the way up to Buckhorn Road, east of Ravendale. Abbey said that after spending a great amount of time reviewing the com- ments, it was made very clear that people were pas- sionate about the wild hors- es, and the BLM was able to come to what he called straightforward conclusions. "When I first came on board as the Director for the Bureau of Land Manage- ment, Secretary (of the U.S. Department of Interior Ken) Salazar sat down and we dis- cussed several goals that we wanted to accomplish during our time. One of those goals was to take a top to bat{am look at the wild horse and burro program, and if neces- sary take responsive and bold actions to ensure the ,health of these much loved symbols of the west" and the rangelands on which they and so many people and re- sources depend."
