STONEHAM — White Mountain National Forest officials will convene an open house for the public from 6 to 8 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 23, on planned projects in the region.
The WMNF is proposing timber harvest and wildlife habitat improvement projects in Stoneham, Lovell and Mason and Albany townships. A final decision is expected in October.
Forest spokeswoman Tiffany Benna said Wednesday afternoon by email that the open house will be held at Stoneham's Fire Hall/Town Office, which is on Butters Hill Road.
