Could not find any info. on the site about this issue, so I'll post it up!
FYI:
Tellico Trails proposed for closure!
SITUATION:
The US Forest Service is proposing new rules and restrictions at Tellico. The Southern Four Wheel Drive Association (http://www.sfwda.org) has reviewed the proposed restrictions and found many of them arbitrary and unfair. SFWDA is trying to convince the FS that solutions other than closure are best. Support for rational solutions ( not closure ) is needed to help SFWDA and other OHV groups protect the trails at Tellico.
WHAT YOU NEED TO DO:
Send a quick email to the U.S. Forest Service using the comments suggestions below. Although personal letters are always best, simply pasting the comments into an email is acceptable to show national support for the solutions offered by local OHV clubs.
PLEASE DO THIS TODAY!
The public comment period runs through close of business on January 13, 2006.
EMAIL INSTRUCTIONS:
Address your email to: R E Vann, Tusquitee District Ranger

Dear Ranger Vann,
I have learned of proposed restrictions regarding several trails in the Upper Tellico OHV Area. The Tellico area is highly valuable recreational resource with National significance. I strongly urge you to utilize all resources except closure to address resource issues. I support the recommendations of the Southern Four Wheel Drive Associations and request that you consider their input.
Sincerely,
YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS.
