The Ozark Society's President Brian Thompson reports on the effort by an Arkansas Senator and the corporate Farm Bureau to scuttle the protection of the Buffalo National River.



"...at this point that Senator Johnson mentioned in his testimony that Arkansas Farm Bureau had crafted his bill, perhaps deflecting responsibility.  As it turned out, the elimination of the moratorium in the Buffalo watershed, was a top Farm Bureau priority"-   Brian Thompson, Ozark Society president.
