Report Date July 12, 1978
Report No. CED-78-133
Subject
Summary:

The Forest Service's planning efforts have evolved over many years from single resource plans to multiple resource management plans that consider all forest resources.

While some individual regions and forests have made considerable progress in multiple resource land use planning, overall progress has been slow and problems have been encountered. Recent legislation requires the Forest Service to develop and implement a comprehensive, integrated land management planning system by 1985. Regulations to implement the planning system must be issued by October 1978.
