I see that the listings for the Sheldon National Wildlife Refuge of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, a federal agency, is now in the Washoe County listings. WHY? The Sheldon NWR is comparable to a National Forest, a BLM district or a unit of the National Park Service. These agencies work together and have a lot of similarities, they manage natural resources. When I program my scanners for an area I always have a natural resource bank, list or system (depending on what it is called in various scanner models) and in goes all the federal and state natural resource agencies. I don't want to spend a great deal of time searching in each county for a federal agency. I don't want to do so for state agencies either. I click on the federal tab under each state and click on the agency type in the state listings. Having to click into each county, wondering if there is a federal agency listed is inefficient and ill advised (it's dumb). Can someone tell me what logic is behind burying a National Wildlife Refuge in county listings?

Thank you for your feedback.
I have restored the Nevada Federal webpage Sheldon National Wildlife Refuge listing,
and the Washoe County section now links back to the Nevada Federal webpage.
Thank you,
Kurt
