Chattooga River Visitor Use Capacity Analysis Update

Forest Service presented six preliminary alternatives to the public during a scoping period in August. The agency revised some of those preliminary alternatives and added new ones, which were presented at an alternatives workshop in Clayton, GA, in September. The agency is now analyzing those alternatives in an EA, which will go out for a 45-day public review period in February. The EA will be available on the Francis Marion and Sumter National Forests’ web site at http://www.fs.fed.us/r8/fms where additional background information can be found as well.
Please plan to submit your comments during the review period.

Horsepasture River Reclassification

The Environmental Management Commission, at the request of the Sierra Club, is proposing to reclassify the lower 4.6 mile portion of the Horsepasture River, and its tributaries, in Transylvania County to Outstanding Resource Waters. The upper portion of the river did not meet the criteria for ORW designation, but the EMC proposes to implement the ORW special protection measures in the entire Horsepasture watershed. 19,137 acres, and 36 miles of named waterbodies are proposed to be reclassified. This area includes parts of the watershed east of Cashiers. Additional information including a map is located at the DWQ website. Comments are due by June 2, 2008.
