SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On
December 18, 2009, the Forest Service
formally announced the intent to
prepare a new planning rule with the
publication of a notice of intent (NOI) to
prepare an environmental impact
statement in the Federal Register (74 FR
67165) (https://fs.usda.gov/Internet/
FSE_DOCUMENTS/
stelprdb5110264.pdf). In line with
President Obama’s call for open
government that is transparent,
participatory and collaborative, the
Forest Service is committed to actively
engaging the public in the development
of a new planning rule. The national
science forum, three national
roundtables, and nine regional
roundtables are key elements in the
agency’s plan to provide multiple
opportunities for public dialogue and
collaboration to develop the proposed
planning rule and DEIS. Webcasts, the
posting of summaries from each session,
and the planning rule blog, all hosted on
the Forest Service planning rule Web
site, will provide further support for a
dynamic, participatory, transparent and
collaborative process.
Science forum: The national science
forum will provide an opportunity for
scientists and other participants to share
perspectives on how science can inform
and form a strong basis for a new
planning rule. The science forum will
be open to the public and will be
available over webcast. Notes from the
forum will be posted to the planning
rule Web site for further feedback, and
will be used to frame the roundtable
discussions. Further information on the
design and agenda for the forum will be
posted to the planning rule Web site at
https://www.fs.usda.gov/planningrule.
Roundtables: The U.S. Institute for
Environmental Conflict Resolution, an
independent federal program, is
assisting the Forest Service in

organizing the national and regional
roundtables. All roundtables will be
open to the public and will provide
opportunities for dialogue about the
nature and content of a new planning
rule. Notes from each roundtable will be
posted on the planning rule Web site for
further feedback opportunities. The
public will also be able to view parts of
and provide feedback on the
roundtables through remote access;
details on remote access opportunties
will be posted the planning rule Web
site.
The Planning Rule Blog (https://
blogs.usda.gov/usdablogs/planningrule)
will provide opportunities for people
who are unable to attend the
roundtables to discuss the subjects
covered and to provide feedback on the
notes from the roundtables as they are
posted to the planning rule Web site.
Summaries of the presentations and
discussions that occur during each
session will be produced and become
part of the public record for the rule.
The teams writing the proposed rule
and the draft environmental impact
statement (DEIS) will use these
summaries, along with the report of
individual comments expressed during
the 60-day formal comment period on
the Notice of Intent, in the development
of the proposed rule and DEIS
alternatives.
While public participation in the
forum and roundtables will be a
valuable source of information for the
rulewriting process, we emphasize that
this participation is not a substitute for
the submission of written comments
through the formal National
Environmental Policy Act and
Administrative Procedure Act (NEPA/
APA) processes. Any comments you
wish to be considered as part of the
formal NEPA/APA process must be
made by you in writing during the
appropriate comment period.

the planning rule development process,
and general background information on
the planning rule may be found at
