The LFDC NEPA Tracker monitors active NEPA projects across National Forests in Washington, Oregon, California, and Alaska, giving advocates real-time visibility into proposed logging, land management, and restoration activities on public lands.
Projects are updated daily and organized to quickly find new projects and ones currently inviting public participation.
This database contains only the projects that have been published by USFS and that are/were recently in the NEPA analysis page.
Recent policy changes at USFS and the increased use of Categorical Exclusions have drastically reduced the share of USFS projects that get published and/or invite public comment. This means many projects can only be discovered by the public through field monitoring, long after the project has been planned, approved, and contracted.
If your local forests are not yet being tracked, submit feedback using the link above to request the expanded coverage.
There is no 'alert' feature at this time, so check back regularly to learn about new projects and opportunity to comment.

MTH Long Prairie Allotment - Reevaluation of Environmental Documents
The Long Prairie Allotment Decision Notice was signed in 2005. A Reevaluation of Environmental Documents (7 CFR 1b.9 (r)) was conducted to evaluate grazing on the Long Prairie Pasture within the allotment.
This project includes a suite of activities to restore forest and watershed resiliency, including: fuels treatments and prescribed burning; and upland and watershed restoration.
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) received nominations of National Forest System lands to be considered for a future, competitive geothermal lease sale. The Forest Service is considering whether to consent to the BLM to lease these lands.
This project seeks to improve forest health and diversity in plantations. In addition, this project seeks to reduce excessive fuel loading primarily along forest roads. Approximately 4,000 acres may be proposed for vegetation and fuels treatments.

MTH Lost Lake Late Successional Reserve Acre Swap
There is a need to amend the Forest Plan to remove the high use recreational area of Lost Lake Resort, Campground and Day Use Area from Late-successional Reserve (LSR), and reallocate more appropriate areas as LSR.
The purpose of this project is to improve forest conditions by reducing accumulated fuels on approximately 100 acres west of the Wapinitia subdivision. Work includes non-commercial hand-cutting trees 6-8 inches DBH. Access will use existing roads.
Developing project to reduce fuels in the Central area of the Crooked River National Grassland in response to the Wildfire Crisis Strategy (WCS). Work will primarily involve juniper thinning followed by piling/burning and native shrub planting.
