Hobbs also said she "can think of no better use of the Antiquities Act than to protect our state’s namesake treasure."
She said the Arizona Game and Fish Department will retain its existing authority related to the management, control and regulation of fish and wildlife "so that this authority is clearly delineated prior to the years-long formation of a monument management plan."
