I am writing to urge the federal government to keep the current protections for the 45 million acres of wild and roadless forests. Please do NOT rescind or alter the Roadless Area Conservation Rule.
Roadless areas are full of old-growth trees that make up crucial wildlife habitat. Our wildlife and natural areas are one of the things I value most about living in this area. Roads cause devastating habitat fragmentation and create the potential for increased mining and logging that will drive remove and degrade more habitat and drive species to extinction.
You must not make this change.
Sincerely,
Cassia Torczon
