Challenge to Bush Rules Exempting Timber Sales from NEPA The Western Environmental Law Center is seeking to have rules exempting large categories of timber sales from NEPA review set aside so that the sales will continue to receive review and to make sure they do not unduly harm our National Forests. In 2003, the Forest Service issued new rules which exempt large categories of timber sales from the environmental review and public comment provisions of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). The Western Environmental Law Center is seeking to have those rules set aside so that most timber sales will continue to receive review under NEPA to make sure they do not unduly harm our National Forests.
