The U.S. Forest Service is taking public comment on a proposal to create a nationwide Environmental Assessment regarding post-wildfire recovery work. Right now, NEPA delays can stretch for years, leaving dangerous trees, erosion, damaged roads/trails, and burned timber to worsen while communities lose access and local economies take the hit. Canada often moves far more quickly after fires, and changes would help bring the U.S. closer to that more effective model. Comments are open through January 26. Add your voice below.

A long-running bill dubbed the ‘America’s Red Rock Wilderness Act’ would radically reshape how millions of acres of Utah’s public lands are managed.

The Dolores River National Conservation Area: Not a Compromise, Just Another Closure in Disguise
