pages 2 and 34 for mention of inholdings)
FWS Land Acquisition
(Mention of inholdings on pages 3, 15, 36, and 38. This report
is interesting in that it separates letters so that a search for
a word does not produce a result; for example, Acquisition is
spelled "A cquisition" with a space between the first
and second letter. This is not the only word that receives this
'treatment.')
Fish and Wildlife Service FWS Funding

Wildfire Report Final: Assessing the Environmental, Social, and
Economic Impacts of Wildfire

Contents on Page 4 list fires from New Mexico, Montana and
Virginia in 2000; Florida and California in 2001; New Jersey,
Colorado, Arizona, South Dakota, Oregon and California in 2002.
CUSP - Coalition for the Upper South Platte - is mentioned on
page 38 as having coordinated volunteer efforts and EWPs -
Emergency Watershed Programs. On page 47, discussing the 2002
Biscuit Fire of Oregon and California, it is mentioned,
almost as an apologetic afterthought, that "The
private land that burned was mostly inholdings within the public
land matrix." Page 52 lists the ten 'case study' fires with
the 'condition class.' Six of the ten fires were 'Condition
Class 3,' which "signifies forest areas with significantly
altered fire regime, fire frequency, and vegetation attributes
from their historical range." This appears to imply that if
humans had not 'altered' the vegetation and landscape, such
fires would have been a non-issue. The discussion continues on
page 53 and further underpins this line of 'logic.'
A Google.com search for "IUCN" "inholdings"
produced 59 results.
"UNDP" "inholdings" got 4 important results:

strategy to deal with all the beach front inholdings." This
could be a primer on 'land and resource acquisition by hook or
by crook.')

(Important Note: Note the separation of letters that cause a
word search not to get a result, even in the title of this IUCN
108-page report from December 6, 2000. Reference is made to
inholdings on page 97; GoG being the acronym for 'Government of
Guatemala'. SO5 is an acronym for Strategic Objective 5. IR is
an acronym -- this alphabet soup speak is truly 'speaking in
code' -- for Intermediate Result. Indigenous peoples of such
countries stand little chance of resisting global PacMan, with
their limited education running up against the experts of
language deception. Just one example, from page 69: "1.
Human Settlements in the Maya Biosphere Reserve. a. Benchmark.
Policy for human settlements in the Maya Biosphere Reserve is
developed based on consensus." Gee, why don't they just go
ahead and change the spelling to 'Conned Senses'? Because that's
exactly what it is. On page 52: UTPMs is the deliberately coded
Municipal Planning Technical Units; SARNs is Natural Resource
Sections. Page 51: MAGA stands for 'Ministry of Agriculture.' Page
46: "USAID [United States Agency for International
Development] and its partners should recognize the 'buffer zone'
for what it is -- a Service Corridor -- and start managing it in
a way that exploits the many important economic, ecological and
social linkages..." Page 38: SIGAP - Guatemalan System of
Protected Areas. Who would guess that that's what SIGAP stands
for? Page 35 mentions The Nature Conservancy and the work TNC is
doing... Page 27: "Recognize the Buffer Zone for what it is
and rename it to more accurately reflect what it is. We suggest
'Service Corridor.'" Page 12 again mentions the 'Buffer
Zone' is not a buffer zone and 'never has been,' and that it is
a 'densely populated Service Corridor.')
