    FEATURE:
    Colorado Roadless Rule
    The Colorado Department of Natural Resources has released proposed revisions to the draft Colorado Roadless Rule, along with supporting information on a new web page. DNR has been working with the U.S. Forest Service and a wide variety of stakeholders since 2005 to develop a permanent conservation framework for the 363 roadless areas in Colorado. The release of the proposed revisions opens a 60-day state comment period, after which DNR may consider making additional adjustments before finalizing its recommendations to the U.S. Department of Agriculture later this fall.
