Mendocino
National Forest
to Host Public Workshops to Discuss
Off-Highway Vehicle Routes
Willows,
February 14,
2005 - The Mendocino National Forest will
hold three public workshops in March and April to discuss a Forest
Service statewide effort now underway to manage motorized off-highway
vehicle (OHV) use on national forests.
Over the next four years, all national forests in California will
designate a system of roads and trails for motorized OHV use that will
enhance quality recreation opportunities, promote public safety and
protect natural resources. While all national forests in California
will
be conducting the designation process, each forest has different OHV
management standards already in place and will be charting the course
of their designation process independently over the next four years.
The Mendocino National Forest will host three workshops to describe the
route designation process, share the routes that have been inventoried
on the Mendocino, and identify members of the public who are interested
in participating in the Mendocino's designation process in the future.
All workshops are on Saturday mornings from 10 a.m. to noon on the
following dates:
| March 5, 2005 |
March 12, 2005 |
April 2, 2005 |
