Appeal Board for Forart Urcrr

listablishrnent of a National Forest Advisory lloard of Appeals in the l)epartment of Agricultttre is reported by Perry A. Thompson, U. S. regional forester at San Francist-r.

-fhe board, estaltlishctl by an ortler of Secrctary of Agriculture Charles 1". Ilrannatr, is to advise thc Sccrctary on any appeals to him fronr <lecisions of thc Chicf t'f the l"orest Service involving any public use of the National l'orests and othcr lands under adnrinistration or contr<ll of the Forest Service. 'l'lre lirard will consist of live cntployees <lf the I)epartment of Agriculture selected from agencies vr'ithin the l)ellartment otlter than the Forest Service. Membership of the nerv board will be announced later.

"Upon receipt of a written request to the Secretary frorll the appellant," thc order statcd' "the Secretary shall refer the aplleal to the board before which the apllellant may appear if he so tlesires an<l the llrlard shall ctlrrsi<ler the appeal on its merits and fttrnish its advice and recommendations to the Secrctary."

Under existing rcgttlations, users of National Forest l:rnds, sttch as grazing llermittees, pttrchasers of tinrber, ancl ht>lders of othcr permits, n.ray allpeal frclm a<lministrative decisions of the Forest Service to the Secretary of Agriculture. When an appeal conles to him, Secretary llrannan sai<I, it h:rs alrvays l;een the practice to call upon menrbers of the Secret:rry's staff to make an objective study of the case prior to his personal consideration antl decision. A number of grazing pernlittees, have, hou'ever, expressed a desire for a more formal arrangement.

The nerv National Forest Advisory Board of Appeals shoulcl not be confused with the National Forest lJoard of Revierv established in 1948. The Board of ltevierv is composed of 1>rivate citizens. Its purpose is t<l aclvise the Secretary on qttestions of general policy and the solution of majrlr problems arising in connection with adnrinistration of the National Forests.
