Prince of Wales Landscape Level Analysis Project public comment period THORNE BAY, Alaska, July 6, 2017
– The Thorne Bay and Craig Ranger Districts are looking for broad input from the public on how National Forest System lands on Prince of Wales and outer islands will be managed over the next 10 to15 years. An official, 30-day public comment period begins for
the Prince of Wales Landscape Level Analysis (POW LLA) Project with publication of the Corrected Notice of Intent (NOI) to publish an environmental impact statement in the Federal Register on July 6, 2017.
To submit comments, view the Corrected NOI, or sign up for an electronic mailing list, visit the project web page

information, updates, meeting notices, and documents will be provided there throughout the planning and analysis process. The purpose of the POW LLA Project is to improve forest ecosystem health on Craig and Thorne Bay Ranger Districts,
help support community resiliency, and provide economic development through an integrated approach to meet multiple resource objectives. The Forest Service has incorporated public input into the design of the POW LLA Project proposal and is now seeking comments
on that proposed action to help identify issues and concerns which would help drive the development of alternatives. For more information, contact Project Manager Lucy Maldonado at 907-828-3250 or email
