January/February 2009 Public Workshops on Forest Plan Compenents <br />
<br />
We held workshops in Lexington (January 29) and Woodstock (February 5).  These workshops began with a presentation on how the Forest Interdisciplinary Team and Leadership Team had utilized the information received during our previous workshops and public comments to begin to develop the components of the Draft Revised Plan.  After the presentation we discussed how well our preliminary components addressed the concerns of the workshop participants.  A summary of the comments we received is available.<br />

March 11, 2010 – George Washington National Forest in Virginia and West Virginia has published a notice of intent to prepare an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) and revised Resource Management Plan (RMP).  Some of the major issues to be included in the RMP revision are access, roadless area and wilderness management.  Proposed actions relating to these issues include: 1) identifying one new area and three additions to existing wilderness areas that comprise about 20,400 acres as recommended wilderness study areas; 2) expanding the current remote backcountry management area allocation to include more of the Inventoried Roadless Areas and update the management direction for these remote backcountry areas; 3) providing that areas in the potential wilderness area inventory that are actively managed and are not recommended for wilderness study, would remain in active management; and 4) revaluate road access needs.<br />
<br />
Comments on the scope of the RMP revision will be accepted until May 7, 2010.  It is important that ORV enthusiasts get involved in the designation process by contacting Forest staff.  Comments may be submitted by email to: comments-southern-georgewashingtonjefferson@fs.fed.us with “GW Plan Revision” in the subject line or by mail to: <br />
