Guessing some calibfornia type judge will issue an injunction of some sort to try to prevent this. TFB! Add in the opening of a million plus acres of access to drill and frack. WINNING!

It is almost like they are blaming massive forest fires on poor or non-existent forest management practices. Won’t that hurt Jerry Brown’s feelings?

In South Florida landscaping trees cause most of the damage during hurricanes, and they are protected by law from being removed. Before development there were almost no trees in South Florida.

Yep. Some liberal judge will rule that Trump doesn’t have the authority to rescind Clinton’s EO. Just like the judge who ruled that Trump couldn’t rescind obama’s unconstitutional DACA.

Yes when I was growing up there was logging, ranching that kept the forests healthy. Of course there were fires, but not the inferno fires now. Loggers kept the trees thinned out, cattle and sheep grazing kept the brush and old grass down.

Our public lands have been horribly mismanaged and are in terrible shape. It was not the fault of the government in the beginning- there was a great relationship between government, loggers, ranchers. The lefties sued the government over and over- got many laws and regulations passed over the years. Now there are lefties in the Forest Service and BLM; that is who has been recruited for those jobs for many years. The lefties in those agencies will be hard to deal with to get our public lands back to being considered a resource and kept in a good condition.

Victor Davis Hansen has written on this. People used to take lots of the deadfall out to burn at home, now it’s a felony to take a twig back to your place.

I have to wonder why it took 21 years to figure out that this is the best way to manage forestry. Any judge that tries to stop this needs to be removed from office with no pay & no retirement. It’s way past high time that something was done about the idiots that have complicated this issue for the longest time.

What most folks don’t know is the forestland is full of dead wood (kind of like our gubamints), just laying there rotting, rather than being harvested .. of course , greens will complain you have to disturb the forest to get to it.

I guess they’d rather see infernos devouring everything in their path, and due to dense growth , preventing access to fight those fires.

Greens profess to be stewards of the Earth yet always place roadblocks where common sense should apply instead of building them. Some stewards.

From EarthJustice.org via PBS:

What is the Roadless Rule?
The Roadless Area Conservation Rule is administered by the U.S. Forest Service and protects the last remaining “wildlands” in our national forests. Implemented in 2001, during the last days of the Clinton administration, the Roadless Rule places about one-third of the national forests off limits to virtually all road building, logging and development.

Are roadless areas the same as wilderness areas?
Roadless areas are different than wilderness areas essentially because of the way the designated forest lands are managed. The 2001 Roadless Area Conservation Rule, unlike the establishment of wilderness areas, permits a wide range of activities in roadless areas. Permitted activities include timber harvesting for limited purposes, livestock grazing, off-highway vehicle use, and oil and gas development that do not require new roads to continue in roadless areas. Unlike wilderness areas, which are protected by Congress under the Wilderness Act, roadless areas do not have a final rule and have been prescribed individual state-specific rules as well as nationwide prohibitions under different administrations.

What is the background of the Roadless Rule?
The Roadless Rule was first issued by President Bill Clinton's administration in January 2001, as a national guideline, ending virtually all logging, road building and development in America's wildest remaining national forests. But, in 2004, the Bush administration issued a new state-by-state rule that would allow state governors to petition the U.S. Forest Service regarding how much land they want protected in their state. In 2005, Clinton's rule was officially abandoned leaving the use and protection of the land up to state governors. On September 20, 2006, a federal district court ordered reinstatement of the Clinton-era Roadless Rule to protect almost 50 million acres of wild national forests and grasslands from road building, logging and development. The Bush administration immediately appealed that decision and then went back to the states and asked them to resubmit their petitions and re-start the entire rulemaking process. On the same day, Idaho Gov. Jim Risch was the first governor to file a petition opposing most of the roadless rule protections, potentially affecting around 9 million acres of roadless land in his state. For a complete timeline of the rule visit EarthJustice.org
