National Forests and Grasslands in Texas
The Forest Service follows NEPA regulations issued by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Under this rule, Forest Service officials determine which proposed projects are shared for public input.
The agency no longer issues a schedule of proposed actions (SOPA) report. Below is the current list of proposed projects available for review—your opportunity to learn more, share feedback, and stay engaged in decisions that shape the future of our public lands.
Utilizing management techniques including thinning and regeneration to reduce off-site loblolly pine in the project area and improve forest health, wildlife habitat, and overall stand condition.
Brahma proposes installing a 10-12 inch above-ground water pipeline and pump system across 2.454 acres of newly proposed activity. This permit covers all water lines for Brahma within the Angelina National Forest.
Butch Arthur Project would include pine and hardwood thinning, mechanical mulching, and prescribed burning to move stand conditions toward the desired future condition for RCW habitat and reduce the risk of SPB outbreak and wildfire effects.
The proposed Caddo Land Exchange is a connected action to the Lake Ralph Hall Regional Water Supply Reservoir Project (Lake Ralph Hall Project), with approximately 351 acres of the Caddo National Grassland being within the defined project boundary.
Silver Hill Energy, project proponent, is proposing four well pad locations and a 20” diameter natural gas trunk pipeline within Compartments 40, 41, 42, 43, 48, 49, and 50 of the Sabine National Forest (SNF) of the National Forests and Grasslands in Texas (NFGT)
This project would involve removing small to mid-sized woody vegetation utilizing a combination of mechanical treatment and hand tools to improve the diversity, increase herbaceous vegetation, and mitigate smoke management issues.
The forest proposes thinning overstocked stands, prescribed burning, and planting of native species to reduce risk of SPB infestation and improve wildlife habitat for RCW.
Proposal to reconstruct a well pad and access road to explore and produce oil products within tract S-2k-IV, compartment 126, Sabine County. 4.65 acres well pad and 0.54 acre access.
Proposal to combine and re-issue three Special Use Permits for approximately 25.75 miles of already existing powerlines to Mid-South Synergy. The lines provide service to multiple private land inholdings in several compartments and two counties.
The National Forests and Grasslands propose to alter existing stand structures within the project area, to move the stands towards the desired conditions for RCW habitat and reduce Forest susceptibility to SPB.
Proposed installation of approximately 2,748.4 feet (0.52 mi) in length, 50 feet (3.15 acre) in width permanent ROW with an additional temporary 25 feet (1.58 acre) width during construction
NFGT is preparing an EIS to analyze effects of identifying areas available for oil and gas lease considering stipulations. Comments on project will be accepted through April 28, 2026 via: https://cara.fs2c.usda.gov/Public/CommentInput?Project=56882
The proposed project area is within the Moore Plantation Wildlife Management Area (WMA). It consists of Sabine National Forest Administrative Compartments 127, 132, and 135, which consist of approximately 3,479 acres.
Commercially thinning 5,640 acres of overstocked loblolly stands across Sam Houston National Forest for the purpose of moving the ecosystem towards the desired future condition and managing areas of concern for smoke mitigation and hazardous fuels.
Issuance of a Special Use Permit for the use of NFSR 526 located in Compartment 7 of the Davy Crockett NF. The road is located approximately 8 miles northwest of Kennard, TX.
Installation of a natural gas and saltwater disposal pipeline, designation of a 50ft - wide utility corridor x 2,034 ft - length. During installation width would be 75ft with 25 ft restored after installation.
Designation of utility corridor for the installation of underground fiber optic cable and electric cable within an approximately 15 ft by 1,102 ft right-of-way.
