Do you want Salmon and Healthy Forests? Klamath National Forest Needs to Hear From You!

Written by: admin

The Klamath-Siskiyou
ecoregion of southwestern Oregon and northwestern California is a world
renowned hub of biological diversity. The mountain ranges and river
valleys that define this region are some of the most spectacular in
America.

- The Klamath National Forest is making a historic decision that will
affect the health of Klamath forests and salmon for decades to come-
please weigh in on behalf of healthy rivers and intact forest habitat! Historic Opportunity to be Heard Due to the widespread damage that ORVs have caused to streams and
forests throughout the country, the Forest Service has been compelled
to begin a travel planning process to designate where motorized use is
allowed, and where it should be prohibited to protect forest values. This
once-in-a-lifetime opportunity gives the public a chance to speak up
for the watershed, salmon, botanical and non-motorized recreation
values of this outstanding public resource, and truly make a difference. Please take action today by taking a moment to send an automatic letter to the decision makers
at the Klamath National Forest asking them to listen to all members of
the public, not just the Off-Road Vehicle advocates, in developing the
Forest Service's Travel Management Plan.
