ranger districts, forests, and the Regional Office of the Intermountain 
Region to publish legal notice of all decisions subject to appeal under 
36 CFR 215 and 36 CFR 217. The intended effect of this action is to 
inform interested members of the public which newspapers will be used 
to publish legal notices of decisions, thereby allowing them to receive 
constructive notice of a decision, to provide clear evidence of timely 
notice, and to achieve consistency in administering the appeals 
process.

with decisions subject to appeal that are made on or after December 1, 
1996. The list of newspapers will remain in effect until April 1997

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The administrative appeal procedures 36 CFR 
215 and 36 CFR 217, of the Forest Service require publication of legal 
notice in a newspaper of general circulation of all decisions subject 
to appeal. This newspaper publication of notices of decisions is in 
addition to direct notice to those who have requested notice in writing 
and to those known to be interested and affected by a specific 
decision.
    The legal notice is to identify: the decision by title and subject 
matter; the date of the decision; the name and title of the official 
making the decision; and how to obtain copies of the decision. In 
addition, the notice is to state the date the appeal period begins 
which is the day following publication of the notice.
