Welcome! We are revising our existing Forest Plan, an important document that governs all of our management actions. We invite you to continue working with us to develop a new plan that promotes a healthy, diverse, and productive Santa Fe National Forest. Our goal is to remain inclusive and efficient as we move through the collaborative planning process.
Are you interested in or affected by the way that Santa Fe National Forest is managed?
The Forest Plan guides the Santa Fe National Forest in fulfilling its stewardship responsibilities to best meet the current and future needs of the American people. The draft environmental impact statement (DEIS) and revised draft land management plan (Draft Forest Plan) are now available on our website for public review.
The official comment period for the Draft Plan and DEIS that opened following the Notice of Availability (NOA) publication in the Federal Register in August 2019 closed on November​ 7, 2019. Notice was also published in the Albuquerque Journal.
The Santa Fe National Forest held 11 public meetings(between August 20 and September 25, 2019)following the release of the Draft Plan and Draft Environmental Impact Statement and the initiation of an official 90-day comment period. These meetings were of an informal format (open-house style) and had Forest planning and District specialists available to answer questions on resource areas or planning document content, and provided assistance to interested parties in developing substantive comments for submission during the 90-day commenting period.
