Be a lifelong hunter in the state of Missouri another state I do not believe that we need more Roads in the non-public forest areas because of the way people leave trash tires, junk everything on these roads it’s just not good for the environment or our animals Edward Chisholm Highridge, MO 63049
Please maintain protections for the 45 million acres of wild and roadless forests and don’t rescind or alter the Roadless Area Conservation Rule.
These forests are full of mature and old-growth trees that provide important wildlife habitat. They’re our favorite places to hike, fish and camp. Wild forests should remain protected from road-building, commercial logging and mining.
Industrial activity would destroy the trees and trails we love. Keep our national forests wild.
THE NATIONAL FORESTS, AND NATIONAL PARKS ARE THE PROPERTY OF WE THE PEOPLE NOT DONALD J. TRUMP WHO SEEMS OUT TO DESTROY EVERYTHING THAT AMERICA STANDS FOR WE MUST STOP THIS TYRANT AND PUT HIS CRIMINAL ENTERPRISE TO REST IN A PRISON CELL ALONG WITH ALL OF HIS ENABLERS IN THE REPUBLICAN HOUSE AND SENATE, AND THE SUPREME COURT. THESE THINGS MUST NOT BE ALLOWED TO STAND AND IT IS ABOUT TIME THAT SOMEONE HELD THIS SEWER RAT CRIMINALLY LIABLE FOR HIS ACTIONS. WE MUST SEIZE ALL OF HIS AND THE TRUMP FAMILY ASSETS TO PAY BACK THE AMERICAN TAXPAYER FOR ALL OF HIS ILL GOTTEN GAINS.

The Forest Service should keep the Roadless Rule intact exactly as it is, utilizing Alternative 1 in the current DEIS. I am deeply concerned about the proposal to rescind the Roadless Rule.
Roadless areas provide important benefits to communities across the country, including clean drinking water, wildlife habitat, opportunities for outdoor recreation, and protection from the impacts of development. These lands are also an important part of the character and identity of many communities and provide places for people to hike, hunt, fish, camp, ski and otherwise enjoy the outdoors.
I am particularly concerned that rescinding the Roadless Rule could increase development, reduce recreation opportunities, affect wildlife habitat, increase wildfire risk, or harm local economies that depend on outdoor recreation. These areas need to remain undeveloped for the health of the ecosystem, humans, and the planet.
The Roadless Rule has provided consistent, nationwide protections for these special places for decades. The Forest Service should not weaken those protections or open currently protected roadless lands to new development. I urge the Forest Service to pursue Alternative 1 and retain the existing Roadless Rule protections.
Sincerely,

Do not expend or build any new roads in national forests! We don’t need new roads in national forests. Let’s protect what we have left! Thanks. Abigail Lambert. St Louis, MO 63144
