Forest Plan Revision - Proposed Plan

Cover page for the Forest Plan Revision document

The National Forests in Mississippi has elected to use the provisions of the 1982 planning rule, including the requirement to prepare an environmental impact statement, to complete its plan revision. Revision of the Forest Plan is a multi-step, multi-year process that will result in re-analysis of the present plan, identification of changes in management direction, description of our vision for the future, and determination of appropriate strategies and design criteria. The revised Forest Plan will supersede the land and resource management plan previously approved by the Southern Region Regional Forester on September 16, 1985, and as amended seventeen times since original plan approval; however, this amended Forest Plan will remain in effect until the revised plan takes effect.
