Revised Land and Resource Management Plan for the Shawnee 
National Forest (Alexander, Gallatin, Hardin, Jackson, Johnson, Massac, 
Pope, Saline, Williamson, and Union Counties, IL)

AGENCY: Forest Service, USDA.

ACTION: Notice of intent supplement.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On March 20, 2002 the USDA Forest Service published in the 
Federal Register, a Notice of Intent (NOI) to prepare an Environmental 
Impact Statement and to revise the Shawnee National Forest Land and 
Resource Management Plan (Forest Plan). Several public meetings were 
listed in the NOI. Since these meetings were scheduled fairly early in 
the comment period, everyone may not have had sufficient notice prior 
to the meetings. To ensure adequate advance notification, two 
additional meetings are being scheduled, and the comment period is 
being extended.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Shawnee National Forest is scheduling 
two public meetings in addition to the meetings that were scheduled in 
the NOI of March 20, 2002. All information shared by the Forest Service 
at these meetings will be identical to that shared at the previously 
scheduled meetings. These additional meetings will be held as follows:

May 28, 2002, 2-7 p.m., Township Davis-McCann Center, 15 North 14th 
Street, Murphysboro, IL 62966
May 29, 2002, 2-7 p.m.; Ralph Metcalf Federal Building, 77 West Jackson 
Blvd., Chicago, IL 60404.

    The period for accepting comments from the public is also being 
extended. We need to receive your comments on the NOI in writing within 
60 days after this NOI Supplement is published in the Federal Register. 
All other information in the March 20, 2002 NOI remains the same.

    Dated: March 27, 2002.
Donald L. Meyer,
Acting Regional Forester.
