Transients, according to Hernandez, have been known to set up camp in the area.

Other units on scene included a CalFIRE engine and one bulldozer, one Forest Service engine, one water tender from Standish Litchfield Fire Department, Lassen County Sheriff’s deputies and officers from the Susanville Police Department.

These specifically delineated areas are where both motorized and non-motorized recreational users can equally enjoy opportunities to recreate while protecting threatened, endangered, and forest-sensitive species wherever necessary.

“This completes a planning process desired by our visitors to the LNF for several years,” said Deb Bumpus, Forest Supervisor, LNF. “I believe this decision has something

that pleases everyone.”

As part of the NEPA process, an opportunity to object to the RFEIS and ROD was offered in April 2018. A total of 16 objection letters were received and reviewed by Regional Office staff. The Forest Supervisor responded to these objections by revising and clarifying issues in the RFEIS and ROD in response to instructions received by the Deputy Regional Forester.

In comparison to the draft ROD, the final ROD focuses on clarifying for the public those areas that will be open to motorized recreational use as opposed to closed, balances the needs of and opportunities for non-motorized recreationists, and protecting key wildlife habitat on the forest.
