For those residents that have a special place in their heart for Ashley National Forest, it is recommended that you read the Ashley Forest Plan Revision. The revision team has completed the preliminary draft and will be starting the process called Scoping. This process allows the public to give reactions and inputs to the plan. Scoping will begin in mid-May and will officially start when the release of a Notice of Intent is published in the Federal Register. It will last 60 days and the Ashley National Forest invites public involvement as the plan will guide management on the Ashley National Forest for the next 15 to 20 years.
