On Aug. 3, Montana-based outdoor mapping company onX launched a free tool to help people across the country navigate public comment opportunities regarding federal management of public lands. “It’s been a gap in the public discourse; we wanted to empower more people to participate in these public comment periods,” said Lisa Nichols, senior corporate philanthropy and advocacy manager at onX, who led the development of the Public Land Comment Hub. “… Montanans really care about their public lands. The Public Land Comment Hub maps active public comment periods for public lands across the United States. For many Montanans, access to public land is critical.
