Short Description of Activity
Outreach to partner organization attorneys and experts regarding details pertaining to the Species of Conservation Concern selection process and USFS handbook Section 10. Some of this overlaps with our GMUG forest plan work but this activity was very specific to process and understanding of our ability to object to the GMUG Final Plan and FEIS. See GMUG Forest activity report for additional hours.
Reflection/Evaluation
Our partner organizations were incredibly helpful and their legal and policy knowledge was invaluable. Also great opportunity to continue to build relationships with staff at these national organizations!!
