Notice of intent to prepare an environmental impact statement. AGENCY: ACTION: SUMMARY: Based on the content of comments received during scoping the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest will prepare an environmental impact statement (EIS) to disclose the impacts associated with the following proposed actions: • Changes to the forest transportation system, including designation of certain unauthorized routes by motor vehicle use, changing designation of National Forest System (NFS) roads to NFS trails open for motor vehicle use, and closing some NFS roads for access or environmental reasons. • Prohibiting motor vehicle use off designated roads and trails consistent with the national travel management rule. • The three ranger districts currently manage approximately 1,100 miles of motor vehicle routes for public use. The proposed action could designate as many as 1,300 miles of unauthorized routes to meet administrative and utilization needs across the three districts. Many of the unauthorized routes considered for designation have been in existence for many years but have not been recognized as a part of the forest transportation system. DATES: The districts began the travel management process in 2005 and held an initial set of open houses in late 2005 and early 2006. Between 2006 and 2009, the district rangers met informally with county and tribal officials as well as user groups. The districts have accepted comments on this project since January 12, 2009 and will continue to do so until the publication of a draft EIS during the second quarter of 2010.
