The comment
I am writing to express my strong opposition to any effort to rescind, weaken, or roll back the 2001 Roadless Area Conservation Rule. As an avid user and advocate for our nation’s public lands I rely heavily on the integrity and protection of our inventoried roadless areas. I frequently visit the Experimental Forest trails near my home in Black Mountain. Protecting these in fragmented landscapes is deeply personal to me as hiking is a hobby of mine. I urge the U.S. Forest Service and the U.S. Department of Agriculture to maintain full protection for all currently designated inventoried roadless areas.
Thank you for the opportunity to provide public comment.
Sincerely,
Pat Raso
