Newspapers Used for Publication of Legal Notice, Comment and 
Appeal of Decisions for Pacific Northwest Region, Oregon and Washington

AGENCY: Forest Service, USDA.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Two changes have been made to this listing since the May 10, 
1996 Federal Register notice (61 FR 21438). These changes are for the 
Paisley Ranger District on the Fremont National Forest (Oregon) and 
Paulina Ranger District on the Ochoco National Forest (Oregon). This 
updated notice lists the newspapers that will be used by all ranger 
districts, forests, and the Regional Office of the Pacific Northwest 
Region to publish legal notice of all decisions subject to appeal under 
36 CFR Parts 215 and 217 and to publish notice for public comment and 
notice of decisions subject to the provisions of 36 CFR Part 215. The 
intended effect of this action is to inform interested members of the 
public which newspapers will be used to publish the legal notice for 
public comment or decision. This allows the public to receive 
constructive notice of a decision, to provide clear evidence of timely 
notice, and to achieve consistency in administering the appeal process.

DATES: Publication of legal notices in the listed newspapers will begin 
with proposals for public comment or decisions subject to appeal that 
are made on or after June 1, 1998. The list of newspapers will remain 
in effect until another notice is published in the Federal Register.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Jim L. Schuler, Regional Appeals Coordinator, Pacific Northwest Region, 
P.O. Box 3623, Portland, Oregon 97208-3623, phone: (503) 326-2322.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Responsible Officials in the Pacific 
Northwest Region will give legal notice of decisions that may be 
subject to appeal under 36 CFR Parts 215 and 217 in the following 
newspapers which are listed by Forest Service administrative units. 
Where more than one newspaper is listed for any unit, the first 
newspaper listed is the principal newspaper, which shall be used to 
constitute legal evidence that the agency has given timely and 
constructive notice for comment and for decisions that may be subject 
to administrative appeal. The timeframe for appeal shall be based on 
the date of publication of a notice of decision in the principal 
newspaper.
