Is this new news or am I late in finding out?
The Green Ridge ORV Trail is permanently closed.
ORV Trails Status - Updated
Effective immediately, the Maryland Department of Natural Resources (DNR) has permanently closed three of the State’s off-road vehicle (ORV) trails; the Green Ridge Trail at Green Ridge State Forest, Chandler Trail at Pocomoke State Forest, and Poplar Lick Trail at Savage River State Forest. These trails had been temporarily closed pending the results of a forest certification audit. The decision is based on the results of environmental assessments conducted by the Department and the results of our recent forest certification audit. That audit completed last week is part of the State’s effort to receive dual certification for all three western Maryland State Forests — a move that will protect the $950 million western Maryland forest products industry, which employs 9,200 people.

Re: It's over
and the irony is they have reduced timber harvests in WMD to nearly nothing. So this is an empty "win" for the lumbering and environmental industry.dirtygrunt wrote:Is this new news or am I late in finding out?
