BIG THICKET CONSERVATION ASSOCIATION
NEWSLETTER
March, 1994
* * VISITOR'S CENTER FUNDING IN LIMBO * *
BTCA has learned that no appropriations have been made in there is nothing in the fiscal year
1994 or 1995 federal budgets for the continuation of construction of the Big Thicket National
Preserve Visitor's Center. Work on the maintenance facility is nearing completion and Park
Service personnel and equipment will be moved there soon. Inflation projections are pushing
the costs of construction up which means the longer it takes to build this facility, the more it
will cost.
The Big Thicket Conservation Association would like to encourage all members to write to
Senators Gramm and Hutchison and Congressman Wilson regarding inclusion of funds- in the
fiscal year 1995 federal budget for the Big Thicket National Preserve Visitor's Center.
Senator Phil Gramm, Russell Senate Office Building, Washington, DC 20510
Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison, Russell Senate Office Building, Washington, DC
20510
Congressman Charles Wilson, Rayburn House Office Bldg., Washington, DC 20515
