Monitoring

Monitoring Transition: Public Comment Requested. The Apache-Sitgreaves National Forests have begun implementing their newly revised Land Management Plan, which was written under the terms of the 1982 Planning Rule. Because of a requirement in the Forest Service's new 2012 Planning Rule, we are now proposing changes to the monitoring chapter of our plan that will bring it into compliance with the new Rule. To present and explain the proposed changes, please see the following documents: Monitoring Transition Proposed Changes, and Monitoring Transition White Paper. We are requesting public comment on these changes until May 19, 2016. After that, we will consider all comments received and make appropriate adjustments before we finalize the changes.
