Summary
The Forest Service is proposing a new process that allows people to challenge forest management projects before final decisions are made, rather than waiting until after a project is approved. This gives the public an earlier opportunity to raise concerns about how forests are managed in their communities.
Key Points
- 1Creates an early review period where the public can submit objections to forest projects before they are finalized
- 2Affects anyone interested in how national forests are managed, including outdoor enthusiasts, environmental groups, and local communities
- 3The Forest Service must respond to public concerns during this review phase, potentially modifying or rejecting projects based on feedback
- 4Comment period ends March 10, 2026, so interested parties have about one month to weigh in on the proposed process
- 5This is still a proposal—the Forest Service will review all public comments before deciding whether to adopt this new review process
