We have long urged the Forest Service to seriously consider the concerns of Virginians about the potential impacts of horizontal drilling and applaud Supervisor Speaks for taking the time to ensure all stakeholders were heard during this process. We also applaud the recommendation of a National Scenic Area designation for Shenandoah Mountain. We recognize the hard work that went into this plan and remain committed to doing everything we can to preserve Virginia’s beautiful public lands.” More information on the management plan is available here. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
