NOTICE:Limited access, continued service at Tongass NF offices.
Continuing our service to you while doing our part to address the COVID-19 pandemic is very important to us. Therefore, we are limiting our face-to-face meetings and limiting walk-in access to our offices. Signs have been posted at all Tongass National Forest offices with guidance for obtaining entrance to conduct business, which may include setting up an appointment in order to enhance social distancing and minimize the number of visitors in offices at one time. We will continue to serve you via email, phone calls, and appointments as needed. Please click here for a phone directory of Tongass National Forest offices. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we all work together to minimize the impacts and spread of the COVID-19.
