Providing Notice and Opportunity to Comment on Directives #ORMS-2016 |
| Proposed Directive: Forest Service Handbook 1109.12 Directive System
Chapter 30 Providing Notice and Opportunity to Comment on Directives
This proposed directive would set forth
direction for providing public notice of and opportunity to comment on Forest Service
directives. Specifically, this chapter provides direction for determining whether a
directive requires public notice and opportunity for comment, procedures for providing
public notice and opportunity to comment on directives, strategies for engaging the
public in development of Forest Service directives, interagency and intergovernmental
communication, including tribal consultation, consideration of public comments, and
finalizing directives.
After the public comment period closes, the Forest Service will consider timely
comments that are within the scope of this proposed directive in the development of the
final directive. A notice of the final directive, including a response to timely comments,
will be posted on the Forest Service’s webpage. |
