Letter to Forest Service Regarding Comanche and Cimarron Grasslands Plan

Responding to a recent court ruling, conservation groups WildEarth Guardians and Colorado Wild are urging the Forest Service to rescind a new proposed management plan for the Comanche and Cimarron National Grasslands

WildEarth Guardians and Colorado Wild sent a joint letter to the Forest Service, pointing out that continuing with the Comanche and Cimarron planning process would violate a court order; U.S. District Judge Phyllis Hamilton ruled that U.S. Forest Service regulations used to formulate forest and grassland management plans, issued by the Bush Administration in 2005, violated several federal laws, including the Endangered Species Act.
