I would say some of it in that case.... The community desire was to protect against oil and gas exploration. There was exploration in the region in the seventies that literally traumatized people. I would say it was a continuous belief in other parts of the country that surely they couldn't want protection there, yet they did, and so steadfastly they continued asking for protection. It's a combination of a number of things. It's also that there were some oil and gas permits there that had not been acted on that were blocking the creation of the larger boundary, which the local communities wanted, to protect the integrity of the ecosystem. There are a number of issues.
