BLM & FS Seeks Help
« on: February 15, 2020, 09:14:21 AM »
The Forest Service and BLM are seeking help to expand access (inaccessible or limited) to public land as mandated by the Dingell Act.  Now is your chance to be involved. 

John D. Dingell, Jr. Conservation, Management, and Recreation Act
On March 12, 2019, President Trump signed S. 47 into law as Public Law 116-9, the John D. Dingell, Jr. Conservation, Management, and Recreation Act.

In accordance with SEC. 4105. IDENTIFYING OPPORTUNITIES FOR RECREATION, HUNTING, AND FISHING ON FEDERAL LAND; the USDA Forest Service and BLM are seeking nominations that describe areas on agency lands where access is currently nonexistent or limited for hunting, fishing or other recreational opportunities.

The agencies want to hear from the public about those areas on national forests and grasslands that are not on the list. The lands nominated must be managed by the Forest Service, be a minimum of 640 acres, and unreachable by foot, horseback, motorized vehicle or non-motorized vehicle because of the presence of lands owned or managed by others.

Forest Service:

To nominate a parcel of Forest Service land for consideration email SM.FS.nominations@usda.gov or write to Lands and Realty Management, ATTN: Access Nominations, USDA Forest Service, 1400 Independence Ave. SW, Washington, DC  20250-1111.

Nominations should include a name, contact information and brief description of the land being nominated.
