Schedule of Proposed Actions

The Schedule of Proposed Actions is a quarterly publication of current and proposed actions on the Gifford Pinchot National Forest. The purpose of this schedule is to give you informal notice of the proposed projects we plan to analyze in the coming months and to provide information on how you may make comment on proposed activities.

This schedule is intended for general information only. If you are interested in a particular project you may contact the indicated team leader. You may request to be on the project-specific mailing list to receive the most up-to-date information for that project.

Visit the Forest Service National Headquarters web site to download the Schedule of Proposed Actions for another National Forest, Grassland, Scenic Area, Recreation Area, or Tall Grass Prairie in the United States.
