Heavenly Protests Tahoe Forest Plan

  • Push to The Latest: No

Heavenly also argues that the plan would revise the terms and boundaries of its current permit area and hamstring development. Specifically, a proposal to create a special refuge area for whitebark pines within the resort’s boundaries would place new restrictions on the area.

Environmental groups and fire chiefs around Lake Tahoe also submitted objections to the plan.

The Forest Service has 90 days to review and respond to the complaints as part of the objection resolution process before the regional forester signs a record of decision and puts the plan into effect.
