Please do NOT end the Roadless Rule in national forests and wilderness areas. I am a resident of Pocahontas county, West Virginia, where the great Monongahela NF is protected by the Roadless Rule. Thousands of people visit this forest every year to enjoy hunting, fishing, and other recreational activities. It generates essential tourism for the small local economy, and it is beloved by WV residents. You cannot hunt, fish, camp, and hike on a road. These areas are cherished for their lack of roads, not the other way around. Every road and logging project further divides the fragmented and precious Appalachian habitat, which is one of the most biodiverse places in the world. Please continue to conserve this wonderful place by maintaining the Roadless Rule as it exists today. Thank you.
