The Trump administration has overturned the Roadless Rule that protects more than 59 million acres of national forests, including in the San Bernardino National Forest, the Sequoia National Forest and woodlands.

The decision allows for road construction and timber harvesting on millions of acres in 38 states previously protected under the rule, including about 1 million acres in Southern California's national forests.

 Trump officials said the move is necessary for fire prevention on 28 million acres of forests at risk of wildfire, and to boost the depressed logging industry.
