This key designation would further narrow the scope of review for the remainder of the process. Nearly two years of additional and comprehensive scientific analysis by the USFS and cooperating agencies, combined with the additional public review of the SDEIS, fortify the rigorous process mandated by the National Environmental Policy Act (\"NEPA\").\n \n \n \"We remain eager to show how our project improvements are designed to leave water quality and overall habitat in this historic mining district in better shape than they are in today,\" said\n \n Laurel Sayer...
