SUMMARY: This notice lists the newspapers that will be used by the

of proposed actions and notices of decisions. This will provide the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The administrative procedures at 36 CFR 
parts 215 and 217 require the Forest Service to publish notices in a 
newspaper of general circulation. In addition, the Forest Service will 
provide direct notice to those who have requested notice in writing and 
those known to be affected by a specific decision. The content of the 
notices is specified in 26 CFR parts 215 and 217. In general, the 
notices will identify: the decision or project, by title or subject 
matter; the name and title of the official making the decision; how to 
obtain additional information; and where and how to file comments or 
appeals. The date the notice is published will be used to establish the
