DEIS Work Shop in Chico

[Pantheus]

This is preliminary notice to mark your calendars that on Tuesday July 7th from 3 to 6 in Chico State University BMU room 210  will be the only other L.N.F. Work Shop besides the one in Susanville.

More details will be forthcoming as soon as the contract is signed,  but I wanted to get you the info as soon as possible to save the date.

Here are the 'real deal" details:

The Lassen National Forest will be holding an open house on July 7th regarding the Travel Management Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) for designating wheeled motorized vehicle travel.

An open house will be held Tuesday, July 7th, from 3:00 to 6:00 p.m., at Chico State University at the Bell Memorial Union, Room 210.

Here is a map of the campus, with Bell Memorial Union being in the southeast corner on W. 2 nd Street of West Central Campus.  Room 210 is second floor

This open house will provide an opportunity to view large maps and to learn about the different alternatives concerning wheeled motorized vehicle travel, also known as Route Designation or Access and Travel Management.  The open house format will demonstrate the development of each alternative and how to provide comments on the proposals outlined in the DEIS.  Comment cards will also be provided for use during the open house.

This is a drop-in open house, and you can come any time from 3:00 to 6:00 to talk with the L.N.F. team members, and view the large maps and see what  the DEIS proposed, in each of 5 alternatives and ask specific questions, and leave comments.

If you use Lassen National Forest, for wheeled motorized travel and are closer to Chico than Susanville  this is a must-do open house.

Written or email comments on the DEIS are due July 20th, with a final decision on a designated system of wheeled motorized vehicle routes due around September 2009.
