Motorized Racing on Coastal Sand Dunes Is Anything But Low-Impact

"Five years of motorized races will devastate the fragile ecosystem at Oceano Dunes [in central California]. The Parks Department issued a race permit on the same day of the event without providing the public with an opportunity to review the proposal or comment on the impacts to the environment. The agency is not above the law." - quote by Andrew Orahoske, conservation advocate with the Center for Biological Diversity; quote appeared in this press release.
