Wed, 13 Jan 2010 00:09:02 +0000 http://balanceduse.org/?p=188#comment-19 I would like to make a personal comment on the proposed changes in the FS planning rules. Please define the terms conservation, collaboration and restoration as in my experience with the FS, there has been none of the above. The buzzword this year is transparency and I have seen none in any government agancy. These proposed changes need to be out in front of the general public, the very people that their decisions affect. My family and I are true conservationists, and support multiple use. I feel that the Forest Service shoud be what the name implies..Service. Instead of locking working folks out of the forests, the biggest buzzword should be management.
