Years of advocacy, administrative challenges, and public outreach were rewarded when the Forest Service dropped plans to build roads and harvest timber in roadless areas on the Clearwater National Forest.
Two timber sales proposal will move forward, but without plans to build permanent roads or log in roadless areas. The Wilderness Society used the planned timber sales in our national campaign to illustrate the need for a nationwide policy to protect roadless lands.
We are encouraged that the Forest Service recognizes the importance of protecting roadless areas on the Clearwater National Forest.
