“We recognize that motorcycle and other ORV use is extremely popular in this area,

yet Green Diamond has historically prohibited these vehicles for safety and other

reasons,” said Patti Case, spokesperson for Green Diamond Resource Company.

“Leasing land to a dedicated motorcycle organization puts the organization in the

position of managing motorcycle use, gives enthusiasts legitimate opportunities to

ride and provides some revenue for the company to maintain roads and improve

security.”

Green Diamond will review the lease in November, 2017; but reserves the right to

terminate it earlier if safety or environmental damage becomes an issue.
