BURNING MAN OPPOSE NEW REGULATION OF BEING REGISTERED

With Burning Man only two months away, the festival’s production is opposed to some of the new government regulations imposed on the event. One of the regulations is that every person who enters the Black Rock Desert grounds must be registered and this also includes workers in order to detect the presence of drugs and weapons.

This came just after Burning Man asked the U.S. Bureau of Land Management to increase the capacity from 80,000 to 100,000 people, which was denied.

Although Burning Man has always presented himself as a society without rules or organs of government, they explain on his website that they work throughout the year to establish contact with the various branches of federal and local government responsible for the protection of federal land, indicating that they will fight for their rights and discuss all the new regulations that are being imposed.
