The Forest Service will accept comments on this proposal for 30-days (projected May 2 to June 2). Beginning on the first day of the comment period a form to submit comments will populate here. This form is the best way for you to submit comments and for the Forest Service to receive comments.
The official start of the comment period will follow publication of the opportunity to comment legal notice in the Santa Barbara Independent, newspaper of record, which is the exclusive means for calculating the comment period. Commenters should not rely upon dates or time frame information provided by any other source. It is the commenter's responsibility to ensure timely receipt of comments (36 CFR 218.25).
This project is subject to comment pursuant to 36 CFR 218, Subparts A and B. Only those who submit timely project-specific written comments during a designated public comment period are eligible to file an objection. Specific written comments should be written within the scope of the proposed actions, have a direct relationship to the proposed actions, and must include supporting reasons for the Responsible Official to consider (36 CFR 218.2). Individuals or representatives of an entity submitting comments must sign the comments or verify identity upon request.
Comments received in response to this solicitation, including names and addresses of those who comment, will be part of the public record for this proposed action. Comments submitted anonymously will be accepted and considered; however, anonymous comments will not provide the LPNF with the ability to provide the respondent with subsequent environmental documents.
