## Abstract

The U.S. Department of Agriculture (Department) is revising the Forest Service (Forest Service or Agency)'s criminal prohibitions to enhance consistency of the Forest Service's law enforcement practices with those of State and other Federal land management agencies. The Department is also streamlining enforcement of the Forest Service's criminal prohibitions related to fire and use of vehicles on National Forest System roads and National Forest System trails by eliminating the requirement to issue an order for enforcement.
