UPDATE: The BLM has released a new environmental assessment for the Beas Lewis Flat campground. While we appreciate the BLM scaling back the plan, after watching them close over 600 miles of public access routes in the area, this plan is still too restrictive.

Since 2001, BlueRibbon Coalition, along with various states, have been fighting the implementation of the Roadless Rule, which essentially designated 59 million acres of national forests as de facto wilderness through a regulation instead of an act of Congress. The USDA has proposed to rescind the rule and are now accepting comments. BRC strongly supports its rescission. Add your support below by September 19th!
To meet the water needs of their growing population, the City of Bend, OR is planning to purchase parcels from the USFS under the Townsite Act.

For the first time in 35 years, USFS is updating the management plans for the Blue Mountains region in Oregon and Washington. Initial plans propose to stop issuing recreation residence tract permits, consider over 700,000 acres for Roadless Areas, and only maintain a fraction of the already-established roads. Your voice is needed to ensure that we protect recreation access to this popular forest.
The Bridger-Teton National Forest is beginning the process to revise its management plan. With the recent Congressional Acts and Executive Orders that call to protect and expand recreation, we have a generational opportunity expand access within one of the most popular national forests in the States.

The newly released General Management Plan for Valles Caldera National Preserve in New Mexico continues to restrict access. However, the affected areas are not primitive nor remote by federal land management standards. Plus, they contain already well-established roads. Valles Caldera is a unique landscape that should be shared broadly with the public. The current GMP risks locking away too much from everyday Americans. BRC will challenge arbitrary restrictions and push for a management approach that keeps this public land open and accessible for all. We request your support via the form below.
