George Washington National Forest Plan Revision

Why the Plan is Being Revised

The GWNF Land and Resource Management Plan ("Forest Plan") has been in use for 13 years. The 1993 Revision was a major effort that involved the participation of many stakeholders. The purpose of this revision is to examine current management direction, determine which areas need to be changed, and to figure out how best to make those changes. We need your participation to assist us in determining which areas to improve upon. Read more to see how you can participate>>>
