Regular Forest Brat meeting to catch up with issues and next steps.
Reflection/Evaluation
Wyden’s Democracy Act is still on hold. Watching for petition from the PNW Climate Alliance regarding Wildfire Emergency Act which focuses on Field reduction; Potential broadwalk/broadwork in the Fremont Forest area near Lakeview regarding field checking for a project there. This would be a campout. Waiting to hear about outcome from oral arguments for East side Screens. Oregon WIld will be putting out talking points to address the BLM and USFS rule making/policy regarding Old and Mature Growth descriptions and their protection. This is a pretty critical time for their protection on a National level.
