JOINT STATUS REPORT AND 

STIPULATION AND ORDER TO

dismiss (Dkt. Nos. 61, 62, and 65). Further, because counsel for the United States will be in trial 

January 25 through February 3, 2016, and in consideration of the fact that the Court recently reset

The parties further note that the Forest Service halted the Project some time ago (though there is 

a dispute regarding the ongoing environmental impacts of previously implemented Project actions) and

authorization for the challenged Project has been withdrawn. There is thus good cause for the 

continuance, and the Court should grant it.
