    I oppose rescinding the 2001 Roadless Area Conservation Rule. Please retain its protections for inventoried roadless areas. Freshwater matters to me because it is a vital source of life that I care about protecting. Not only because I visit nature often, I love fishing and protecting wildlife, and I also care about the community’s water supply. But I also care about the memories that water holds. I care about the life it gives to others, not only people but the plants and animals we need to survive. I am concerned that removing restrictions on road construction and timber harvesting could increase erosion and sediment entering streams, harming water quality and the aquatic habitat for fish I care about. Please fully evaluate these effects on watersheds and downstream communities. I urge the Forest Service to retain the Roadless Rule and prioritize clean water in its decision. Thank you.
