The Payette National Forest (PNF) released the Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) for their forest Travel Management Plan (TMP) about a month ago. Since then, the comment deadline was extended by ten days until close of business (5PM MDT) July 6, 2007. Please send in your comments as soon as possible. We recommend sending your email by July 5.
