The Manti-La Sal National Forest is hosting Forest Plan Revision open houses in Blanding, Monticello, and Moab this week on August 4, 5, and 6, respectively. As a reminder, these open houses are NOT related to the Public Lands Initiative (PLI) nor the discussion about a potential Bear’s Ears National Monument. Instead, the open houses will address the Forest’s Plan Revision effort, which will update the current 1986 Plan and establish strategic guidance for how the Forest will be managed to allow for multiple uses.

Times and locations:

Blanding – Thursday August 04, 2016 from 5:00 to 7:00 pm at Blanding City Library located at 25 West 300 South

Monticello – Friday August 05, 2016 from 5:00 to 7:00 pm located at Canyon County Discovery Center, 1117 North Main Street

Moab – Saturday, August 06, 2016 from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm at Grand Center located at 182 North 500 West
