Croatan National Forest Plan

The Croatan National Forest Plan was revised in 2002, under the authority of the 1982 Planning Rule. In 2012, the US Forest Service adopted a new planning rule that directs forest plan management. The 2012 Planning Rule (26 CFR 219) required the Forest to modify the forest monitoring program to meet new monitoring requirements by 2016, and transitioned the forest to a biennial monitoring report, with a first report due in 2018.
