USFS looking for OHV money from State Parks

The Forest Service will be submitting an annual application to the state Department of Parks and Recreation, Off-Highway Motor Vehicle Recreation Division. This application requests funding to provide trail maintenance, restoration, conservation, patrolling, education and law enforcement for over the snow and off-highway vehicle trails and areas.

These grants will be available for public review and comment until April 4 online.

Any comments that are submitted to this site will go to the state and to the individual National Forest.

“These annual grants have provided important funds for the Forest Service to maintain the trails, repair winter storm damage and restore trailside environments as well as enabling more patrolling and monitoring of these sites. The Forest Service is requesting over $1 million this year,” David Michael, Tahoe National Forest Trails and OHV manager, said in a statement.
