2025 Annual Public Workshop and Comment Period
We are seeking public input through a workshop and comment period on the Prince of Wales Landscape Level Analysis Project (POW LLA) 2025 Draft Long-term Plan. The Long-term Plan is a living document that allows the public to track activities throughout the implementation process. The Draft 2025 POW Invasive Plant Treatment Plan provides additional information about proposed treatments. The Tongass National Forest is asking for comments on activity design components, locations, methods, mitigation measures and integration opportunities.
Comments may be submitted on the form below. Note that you will not be able to submit comments this way until the public comment period opens on May 2, 2025. If anyone has trouble submitting comments electronically, they may mail or hand-deliver comments to Thorne Bay Ranger District, Attn: POW LLA Long-term Plan, P.O. Box 19001, Thorne Bay, AK, 99919-0001.
For more information, contact Kevin Garter at kevin.garter@usda.gov or 907-828-3244.
The form below can be used to submit your comments to the responsible project official.
National Forests have the option to post comments for public viewing on this web site via a public reading room. Active reading rooms allow the public to read or download your letter, including your contact information. If this project has an active reading room, a link labeled “Public Comment Reading Room” will appear on the main project page. The agency may withhold letters containing proprietary information, sensitive cultural or habitat locations, profanity, etc. All letters, including those not posted, will be considered and included as part of the project record.
Disclaimer: All contact information is optional; however, anonymous comments will not provide standing to object.
