The comment

As a US citizen and resident of NC, I am against this change in the rules that were established in 2001. Places like the Linville Gorge, Black Mountain and portions of Mills River and the Pisgah forest which my family and I use and take advantage of because of it's natural and untouched beauty would be negatively affected by this change in administrative policy. Doing this flies in the face of over 100 years of conservation of our national lands, started by Teddy Roosevelt and championed by the likes of JFK, Obama and Reagan.

Keep learning. Keep speaking up.The Roadless Rule depends on public engagement. Share what you've learned.
