Custer Gallatin Forest Plan Revision

Source:  U.S. Forest Service

The Custer Gallatin Forest Plan Revision team is setting out on the road again with the fourth round of public meetings September 6 -20, 2017.  Community conversations will give the forest service input on the plan direction developed to date.  These public meetings are aimed at stepping down a notch from the overarching vision statements, or desired conditions, and getting into more tangible plan components such as standards, guidelines, objectives and goals that help achieve those overarching visions.Meeting agendas will include an opening main presentation followed by small group discussions organized around key topics such as wildlife, recreation, designated areas and ecology.  Additional topics might include range and riparian areas depending on location.
