BLUERIBBON COALITION LAND USE UPDATE!
Dear BRC Action Alert Subscriber,
Carson National Forest Releases Transportation Management Proposed Action
The Carson National Forest, located in northern New Mexico, has released its Transportation Management Proposed Actions for the Questa Ranger District for public review. A copy of the proposed actions, maps and figures is available online at http://www.fs.fed.us/r3/carson/recreation/travel_mgmt/documents.shtml. The public is invited to visit the district office to view a larger version of the maps. In addition, please call if you would like a CD of the maps mailed to you. Alternative 1 of the Proposed Action is the preferred alternative.
The Forest Service is asking for your comments during a 30-day comment period, which began on August 6, 2009, and will end September 5, 2009. The purpose of this comment period is to provide the public the opportunity to comment on the proposal before a final decision is made.
Comments will be most helpful if they identify the specific actions you think are needed, why those changes should be made and how such a change would better meet your interests.
