The U.S. Forest Service Lake Tahoe Basin Management Unit is seeking comments on the Proposed Action for the Basin Wide Trails Analysis Project. The purpose of this project is to update the trail and road system map to better meet the current need for e-bike access on National Forest lands, while protecting and maintaining highly valued scenery and natural resources.
The LTBMU propose altering its trail system map to allow Class 1 e-bikes on specific trails and clarifying trails where motorized access is permitted, according to a press release. Additionally, the District proposes upgrading road and trail crossings over streams and wet areas, installing interpretive and directional signs, and upgrading trailhead parking areas.
To review the project, visit https://go.usa.gov/xmgxT. Public comment is being accepted until March 28 and is being accepted online or by mail; details on project website.
There will be a virtual public meeting on March 10 from 05:30 to 7:30 p.m. Register https://bit.ly/3bng22O.
