“corruption of the forest buffers around our National Parks”
“greater environmental and ecological stresses on these national treasures”
The comment
Good morning,
I am writing to implore that you not, absolutely not, rescind the Roadless Rule in our National Forests. Bring human activity. They also disrupt the migration patterns (corridors) of large and small animals. The construction of roads, their use and upkeep require human activity as well as alteration of terrain. All of this is problematic to the habits and habitat of wildlife who then have to migrate further from the margins of their territories; thus shrinking them to an unsustainable sizes for adequate population viability. Degradation of the forest floor disrupts water runoff patterns, leads to erosion issues and has impacts on the aquafers. The end point is corruption of the forest buffers around our National Parks and greater environmental and ecological stresses on these national treasures.
Do not rescind the "Roadless Rule".
