The comment

I am writing in support of Alternative 1 (No Action) and retaining the 2001 Roadless Area Conservation Rule. I am a retired fish biologist. I have lived in Vernal, Utah since 1987 and enjoy trout fishing in the Ashley National Forest. The roadless drainages of the Uintas contain headwater streams that sustain sensitive trout fisheries. Maintaining large, undeveloped tracts of public land is essential for watershed health and maintenance of these fisheries. I respectfully urge the U.S. Forest Service to adopt Alternative 1 (No Action) and retain the 2001 Roadless Area Conservation Rule. Respectfully Submitted, G. Bruce Haines

Keep learning. Keep speaking up.The Roadless Rule depends on public engagement. Share what you've learned.
