The BLM should approve solar projects BEFORE logging projects, BEFORE mining projects. The Bureau of Land Management is obviously out of touch and poorly run, unless you're a clear-cutter or a gold miner.

You forgot about all the wild horses, burros and other equines that are rounded up each year and sent to slaughter simply because the cattle and sheep industries don't want those wild animals 'competing' with cattle and sheep for grazing rights. Ranchers pay less than pennies on the dollar to "lease" gov land. So include them on the list with clear-cutters and *any* miners.
