The Kootenai National Forest, Rexford and Fortine Range Districts are accepting public comments on a proposed 3,000-acre forest project near Eureka in the Glen Lake, Sinclair Creek and Ksanka foothills areas.
The Glen Sinclair Fuels Reduction Project would include vegetation and prescribed fire treatments to reduce the risk and extent of catastrophic wildfires to the communities, forests and infrastructure within the wildland urban interface of Lincoln County, northeast of U.S. 93 and near the community of Eureka.
Comments will help inform project development during the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) process. The agency is asking that comments be received by March 6.
