A big THANK YOU to all our members, sponsors, partners and those who support us for submitting comments to the PSI Travel Management project. CORE has come a long way in three years. In 2016 we submitted a single comment during the scoping phase and there were no comments referencing CORE. During the DEIS comment period (ended yesterday), CORE submitted 45 unique and detailed comments and nearly 350 (over 10% of total comments received) mentioned or backed CORE's recommendations. Our comments included several route corrections as the FS maps are highly inaccurate. We were even excited to show up in the Lawsuit Plaintiffs' comments as an honorable mention (see photo).
We had a lot of help and several CORE Members went above and beyond during this process. CORE would like to recognize members Patrick McKay, Ryan Boudreau, Luke Gilginas, Brian O'Connors, and Lisa Potter for all their work during open commenting. This is only one step in the long process to #keeptrailsopen, we have many battles in the future but if we all continue to work together, we can make a difference.
