“A sign on borough land maintained by borough dollars is evidence to support this when it goes to Congress for approval. And to remind you that the same U.S. code that governs designation also states motorized use is prohibited. Please do not give this trail ammo to get that designation.

From the transcript

U.S. Code Title 16, Section 1244 quotes, the extent to which a state or political subdivision might reasonably be expected to participate. A sign on borough land maintained by borough dollars is evidence to support this when it goes to Congress for approval. And to remind you that the same U.S. code that governs designation also states motorized use is prohibited. Please do not give this trail ammo to get that designation. Second, 4 documents describe this project and none of them match.
