Amador County - Local law enforcement officials will address their increasing concern over the commercial cultivation of marijuana in California’s forests at an upcoming Amador-El Dorado Forest Forum in Jackson. Amador County Sheriff Martin Ryan, along with Amador County Combined Narcotics Enforcement Team (ACCNET) Commander Jackie Long are scheduled to speak at the event. “California's forests are under attack by organized drug groups, gangs, and individuals whom are cultivating marijuana,” says an announcement about the event. The announcement says attendees will “learn about the real damage to our pristine ecosystems and the dangers facing those who recreate, work, and live in our forests.” ACCNET has been at the forefront of a number of coordinated marijuana busts since the agency’s creation in November, 2007. ACCNET is one of the 48 regional narcotic task forces that is operated by the Attorney General’s, Bureau of Narcotic Enforcement. It is the brainchild of Sheriff Ryan, an aggressive opponent against the expansion of drug culture in Amador County and throughout the foothills area. This special Amador-El Dorado Forest Forum is scheduled for March 17th at Strings Italian Café in the Amador Plaza Shopping Center in Martell. It includes a Social Hour at 6 pm and dinner at 6:30 pm. The menu includes all-you-can-eat pasta with salad for $11 per person, which includes tax and tip. RSVPs are required by Monday March 15th. Contact Diane Dealey Neill at (530) 417-1960 for more information or to schedule your reservation. Story by Alex Lane This email address is being protected from spambots.
