We funded Trout Unlimited to engage hunters and anglers to ensure that Forest Service roadless area protections remain in effect in Utah. The state has petitioned the Forest Service, requesting an exemption from the 2001 Roadless Area Conservation Rule, and permission to develop its own plan to manage roadless areas in Utah, which would likely undermine the current protections for these lands.
