Repealing the roadless rule would cause serious erosion damage to forests that are protected under it, and would open up inroads for logging, mining, and oil and gas companies to drain the protected forests of their valuable resources. The White House claims that rolling back the roadless rule is for the creation of roads to allow emergency and fire vehicles into the wilderness, but 95% of forest fires start within half a mile of a road. I spend almost every weekend running in White River NF and would be devastated to see this beautiful forest be cut up by roads and then logged. Please do not repeal this rule!!
