Sec. 218.10  Resolution of objections.

    (a) Meetings. Prior to the issuance of the Reviewing Officer's 
written response, either the Reviewing Officer or the objector may 
request to meet to discuss issues raised in the objection and potential 
resolution. The Reviewing Officer has the discretion to determine 
whether or not adequate time remains in the review period to make a 
meeting with the objector practical. All meetings are open to the 
public.
    (b) Response to objections. (1) A written response shall set forth 
the reasons for the response, but need not be a point-by-point review, 
and may contain instructions to the Responsible Official, if necessary. 
In cases involving more than one objection to a proposed authorized 
hazardous fuel reduction project, the Reviewing Officer may consolidate 
objections and issue one or more responses.
    (2) There shall be no further review from any other Forest Service 
or USDA official of the Reviewing Officer's written response to an 
objection.
