  • High Country Citizens' Alliance Appeal Letter
    APPEAL TO THE REGIONAL FORESTER ROCKY MOUNTAIN REGION UNITED STATES FOREST SERVICE In the Matter of the June 28, 2010 Decision of Forest Supervisor Charles S. Richmond of the Grand Mesa, Uncompahgre, and Gunnison National Forests Regarding the Gunnison Travel Management Plan Record of Decision ______________________________________________________________________________ NOTICE OF APPEAL PURSUANT TO 36 C.F.R. PART 215.11 BY HIGH COUNTRY CITIZENS’ ALLIANCE, WILDERNESS WORKSHOP, QUIET USE COALITION AND SIERRA CLUB – ROCKY MOUNTAIN CHAPTER ______________________________________________________________________________ 1 I. Introduction High Country Citizens’ Alliance (HCCA) and the undersigned organizations respectfully appeal the June 28, 2010 record of decision signed by Grand Mesa, Uncompahgre, and Gunnison (GMUG) National Forest Supervisor Charles S. Richmond (the “ROD”), pursuant to 36 C.F.R. Part 215.11. HCCA and the undersigned organizations wish to acknowledge, and are greatly appreciative of, the Forest Service’s efforts to develop a comprehensive Gunnison Travel Management Plan (TMP) that balances the diverse interests of the public with critical environmental concerns. However, we respectfully appeal the decision due to several inadequacies in the Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) and ROD. HCCA’s mission is to champion the protection, conservation and preservation of the natural ecosystems within the Upper Gunnison River Basin. Many of HCCA’s approximately 600 members live, work and recreate in the Gunnison Basin and have a vested interest in ensuring the continued integrity of wildlife, habitat, cultural resources and water resources as well as balanced recreation opportunities on Forest Service lands. II. Argument A. Failure to Respond to DEIS Comments and Inadequate Range of Alternatives On June 3, 2009 HCCA submitted detailed, substantive comments to the Forest Service (USFS) regarding the agency’s Gunnison TMP Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS).
