Video record of December 22, 2014 meeting in St. Maries Idaho between Forest Service and Benewah County Commissioners and Benewah County Natural Resource Team also attended by local, state, and federal government representatives, and members of the public and press.

The goal of the meeting with the USFS Region 1 Forester, Faye Kruger, and IPNF Forest Supervisor, Mary Farnsworth, to determine and ensure that the US Forest Service complied with federal statutes and planning rules in developing the IPNF Forest Plan, and how the Forest Planners failed to coordinate as required with Benewah County Natural Resource land use plan. Benewah County brings to light how the USFS has failed to comply with the laws and ignored the economic situation facing western rural forested communities. The USFS callous arrogance is readily apparent as the USFS continues to endanger the Health, Safety and Welfare and impoverishing the western rural communities through mismanagement of the forested lands through bad planning and bad science, creating a serious threat to humans, critical community watersheds, wildlife and the environment.
