The comment
Dear U.S. Forest Service:
I am writing to express my vehement opposition to any efforts to rescind, weaken, or roll back the 2001 Roadless Area Conservation Rule. As an avid user of and advocate for our nation's public lands, I rely on and cherish the integrity and protection of our inventoried roadless areas.
I frequently visit the Craggy Mountain Wilderness near my home in Asheville, North Carolina. Protecting these unfragmented landscapes is deeply personal to me both becuause I depend on these watersheds for clean drinking water and I frequently hike the backcountry trails.
I beseech the U.S. Forest Service and the U.S. Department of Agriculture to permanently scrap the proposed rescission, and instead maintain full protections for all currently designated, inventoried roadless areas.
Thank you for the opportunity to provide public comment.
Best,
Hunter
