Klamath National Forest Extends Comment Period on Motorized Travel Management DEIS
The Klamath National Forest, located in northwestern California, has extended the public comment period for the Motorized Travel Management Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS), an additional 15 days. The comment period will now end August 4, 2009.
The public may review the DEIS and associated maps at the Forest's website located at http://www.fs.fed.us/r5/klamath/projects/ohv/index.shtml. The DEIS and maps of all the alternatives are available for viewing at U.S. Forest Service's offices in Yreka, Happy Camp, Macdoel, Fort Jones and Orleans, and at Siskiyou County libraries.
Public comments will be considered in development of the Final Environmental Impact Statement and Record of Decision scheduled for release in late fall of 2009. While comments may be submitted anytime during the analysis process, only those who submit timely comments or otherwise express interest during the comment period will have eligibility to appeal the subsequent decision under 36 CFR 215. Comments will be accepted electronically, by fax, in person or by mail. Comments must be postmarked or received no later than August 4, 2009.
