The comment

I strongly oppose the proposed repeal of the 2001 Roadless rule. My father and uncles spent their time hiking and enjoying those areas. My grandfather and great grandfather fought to keep them free. My second, third, fourth and fifth grandfathers carved a life out in these mountains. My children have a right to enjoy them as generations before have. The women of my family bore children and built futures here. Respect what the Lord has created for us. Sincerely, Timothy Hines 341 N Bolton St Romney, WV 26757-1303 hinest614@gmail.com
