Save the Santa Fe National Forest

Inform the public and allow proper time for an EIS before burning, it's the right thing to do.

I think an Environmental Impact Statement is absolutely necessary before this project continues.

Doing an EIS first is a common sense first step. All that you've accomplished so far is to get a lot of people very upset. We do not live any longer in a time when people will sit back & let the environment be destroyed without a fight.

Seriously?! You can do something this radical without a EIS? PLEASE just take a bit of time to review all options. Clear brush is a good logical start -

Please do what is appropriate and do an EIS.

The science of old is in serious opposition to what we understand today particularly in our understanding of the eco-systems/eco-system of the forest and the planet as a whole. We need to adjust our practices to meet this new understanding and stop trying to dominate the Natural World. It barely survives as it is.

Please halt all tree clearing and burning projects in the Santa Fe National Forest and Hyde Park. The EIS is essential for thoughtful forest preservation that will save our wildlife and preserve the natural beauty of our land. Excessive burning is also a health hazard, as we have experienced from current and past fires throughout the southwest. Thank you.

Please explore alternatives!

This is such a huge project, it needs an EIS that complies with NEPA. To date your clearing of the forests have left horrible debris and decimation. It's unthinkable what 50,000 acres would look like and how much wildlife and plant life would be negatively impacted!

Please do NOT do this! Clear brush yes, but you will burn the greenery and inundate us with smoke for months. Tourism will suffer greatly as well.

Thanks Reina for letting me know about this.

We have to start protecting our natural world that has taken care of us. There must be a better way to help balance our awesome forest. Let’s start there

I respectfully request that the environmental assessment be conducted before the Santa Fe national forest and the girls for their radica I respectfully request that the environmental assessment be conducted before the Santa Fe national forest undergoes Further radical thinning and controlled burns

Conducting an EIS is needed before undertaking such radical action. Be wise, be prudent...do your job!

Stop this madness. No more controlled burns

Please do an EIS.

Thank you

Please do not kill Mother Nature or the wildlife, and don't act before the EIS is done. THANK YOU

We must learn to live with nature, not attack it and treat it as if without value. Many plants and animals depend for their lives on the integrity of the forest.

We need an environmental Impact Statement. NOT an "assessment" . And we need for you not to burn the trees off the mountain for a bunch of fat cats who couldn't care less about the trees, the wildlife and Santa Fe (Except as real estate). You wanted to help protect the forests. So do it and tell the Feds to stick it where the sun don't shine. Don't destroy what's left of our our precious and fragile desert mountain woods and forest, and pollute our reservoir. DONT DO IT! Have the cajones to stop this horrendously stupid boondoggle, for favor.
