The Eastern Washington Cascades and Yakima Provincial Advisory Committees (PACs) will meet on Wednesday, February 3, 2010, at the Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest headquarters office main conference room located at 215 Melody Lane in Wenatchee.

The meeting will include time for information sharing by PAC members and updates relative to the Stehekin River Corridor Implementation Plan, Bureau of Land Management Plan and Holden Mine cleanup.

Provincial Advisory committees were established in 1995, after adoption of the Northwest Forest Plan which was developed to protect old growth forest habitat for a variety of wildlife species. The committees include representatives of federal and state agencies, Indian tribes, and various citizen interests. The entire Wenatchee National Forest and the Okanogan National Forest west of the Chewuch River is covered by provisions of the Northwest Forest Plan.

The February 3rd meeting will begin at 9:00 a.m. and continue until 3:30 p.m. All Eastern Washington Cascades and Yakima Province Advisory Committee meetings are open to the public. Public comments may be made at noon.
For more information, please contact Robin DeMario at 509-664-9292.
