Notice of Extension of Public
Comment Period for Proposed Native
Plant Material Policy (FSM 2070)
Forest Service, USDA.
Notice of extension of public
comment period.
AGENCY:
sroberts on PROD1PC70 with NOTICES
ACTION:
SUMMARY: The Forest Service is
extending the public comment period
an additional 30 days for the Proposed
Native Plant Material Policy (FSM
2070). The Forest Service is proposing
to establish a new directive to Forest
Service Manual (FSM) 2070 for native
plant materials, which will provide
direction for the use, growth,
development, and storage of native
plant materials. Public comment is
invited and will be considered in
development of the final directive. A
copy of the proposed directive is
available at https://www.fs.fed.us/
rangelands/whoweare/documents/
FSM2070_Final_2_062905.pdf
DATES: Comments must be received in
writing, on or before August 24, 2006.

to (202) 205–1096 or by e-mail to
nativeplant@fs.fed.us. If comments are
sent via facsimile or email, the public is
asked not to submit duplicate written

All comments, including names and

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title 36
CFR 219.10(b) states: ‘‘The overall goal
of the ecological element of
sustainability is to provide a framework
to contribute to sustaining native
ecological systems by providing
ecological conditions to support
diversity of native plant and animal
species in the plan area.’’ Executive
Order 13112 (February 3, 1999, sec.
2(a)(2)(IV)) on invasive species states
the agencies will ‘‘provide for
restoration of native species and habitat
conditions in ecosystems that have been
invaded [by non-native species].’’ In
accordance with the executive order and
regulation, the Forest Service is
developing a new proposed directive to
Forest Service Manual (FSM) 2070,
Native Plant Materials, which addresses
the uses of native plant materials in the
revegetation, restoration, and
rehabilitation of National Forest System
lands in order to achieve the Agency’s
goal of providing for the diversity of
plant and animal communities. The
proposed policy would direct
collaboration with Federal, State, and
local government entities and the public
to develop and implement a program for
native plant materials for use in
revegetation, restoration, and
rehabilitation.
In proposing this new policy, the
Forest Service’s goal is to promote the
use of native plant materials in
revegetation for restoration and
rehabilitation in order to manage and
conserve terrestrial and aquatic
biological diversity. The proposed
policy defines a native plant as: all
indigenous terrestrial and aquatic plant
species that evolved naturally in an
ecosystem. The proposed policy also
PO 00000
Frm 00005
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
42079
requires the use of best available
information to choose ecologically
adapted plant materials for the site and
situation. Further, the proposed policy
states that native plants are to be used
when timely natural regeneration of the
native plant community is not likely to
occur; native plant materials are the first
choice in revegatation for restoration
and rehabilitation efforts. Nonnative,
non-invasive plant species may be used
when needed: (1) In emergency
conditions to protect basic resource
values such as soil stability and water
quality; (2) as an interim, non-persistent
measure designed to aid in new
establishment of native plants (unless
natural soil, water and biotic conditions
have been permanently altered); (3)
native plant species are not available;
and (4) when working in permanently
altered plant communities. Under no
circumstances will nonnative invasive
plant species be used.
When the proposed policy is issued as
final, the Forest Service will: (1)
Undertake a comprehensive assessment
of needs (type and amount) for native
plant materials; (2) invest in a long-term
commitment to research and
development, education, and
technology transfer for native plant
materials; (3) expand efforts to increase
the availability of native plant materials;
and (4) collaborate with other federal
agencies; tribal, State, and local
governments; academic institutions; and
the private sector.
