From MSNBC: "Permits for Christmas tree cutting and mushroom picking can likely be issued, but wildfire prevention projects such as prescribed burns and thinning are still being held up under a judge's order to give the public greater say in national forest management, the U.S. Forest Service said Thursday."
Judge Singleton's clarifying order is now available online. The letter from the Forest Service Chief is also available on the Forest Service site. The Forest Service page on the Earth Island Institute case includes other pertinent documents.
