So which location are we in this year?

Post by bigbluedoggy » Sun Jul 15, 2007 5:22 pm

Per the BLM Permit, the event will be held in alternating locations based upon maximum attendance numbers of either less than 40,000 people, or 40,000 to 50,000 people. (At least I think that's what it says!) Last year we were in location B and previously we were in location A. If we go over 40,000 we are supposed to move to location C. Otherwise we would be back in location A this year. So where are we? Here are some links to the permit docs and stuff. The details of the alternative plans are outlined in the Environmental Assessment in Section 2 for the most part

I am sure the answer is well known to some, but can someone post it here? Thanks!

Doggy *WOof!* :P
A plan is what you vary from.

Destiny Lounge 3D will be at Bradbury and 3:15 this year as a part of the 404: Village Not Found group of camps! Come see us!

Louise and I went out on July 4, and we saw a crew out there on a work detail. The crew was out there setting up for communications; they said it was center camp for 2007, and our GPS said 40.76684, -119.22770.

If you go to google maps and past that in, you get a pointer thats just off from the center of center camp, so I figure we were using a different datum than they were.

My understanding is that the city will be located on the site last used in 2005.
It's going to be alright.
