BLUERIBBON COALITION ACTION ALERT!
Dear BRC Action Alert Subscriber,
We just got word that Charlie Richmond, Forest Supervisor for the Grand Mesa, Uncompahgre and Gunnison National Forests (GMUG)has announced the release of the Forest's proposed Land Management Plan (Forest Plan).
The public will have 90 days to comment on the proposed Plan and the associated documents once the Notice of Availability is published in the Grand Junction Daily Sentinel (Newspaper of Record). A Notice of Availability will also be published in the Federal Register.
Five public open-house style meetings will be held in a variety of locations across the forest to provide information and a forum to ask and answer questions. Each meeting will be held between 5:30 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. and will include a brief plan overview presentation followed by an open house forum. Please plan to attend one of the following meetings:
Hotchkiss, April 12 (Thursday), 5:30-8:30 pm
Hotchkiss Public Library, First and Main
Norwood, April 17 (Tuesday), 5:30-8:30 pm
Norwood Community Center, 1670 Naturita
Montrose, April 19 (Thursday), 5:30-8:30 pm

Gunnison, April 26 (Thursday), 5:30-8:30 pm

The proposed Plan, Comprehensive Evaluation Report (CER) and additional information is available on the Forest's Website at: www.fs.fed.us/r2/gmug/policy/plan_rev.
BRC will be working with the Colorado Off-Highway Vehicle Coalition and other Western Colorado groups to fully analyze the new plans impact on recreational access. It's likely we'll issue another Action Alert with a more detailed analysis.
