FSM 2180-Mitigation of Adverse Impact #Directives-3839

The Forest Service has been incorporating mitigation into its decision making for decades, under many different statutory authorities; however, implementation has been inconsistent across the Agency. A national policy for the mitigation of adverse impacts to resources across the National Forest System would improve consistency, transparency, and effectiveness, and result in better overall conservation outcomes.
