CAVE VANDALISM DETERRENCE REWARD COMMISSION    


Give cave vandals what they deserve - a guilty verdict. The Cave Vandalism Deterrence Reward Commission offers an NSS reward given to an individual or group who provide information leading to convictions for cave vandalism in the United States. The reward may be paid in the event of a conviction under any cave protection law of any state in the United States, and for acts of vandalism including cave damage, harm to cave-dwelling organisms, damage to signs and gates, and other malicious damage. Contact Jay Jorden: jjorden@texoma.net
