Permit

The U.S. Bureau of Land Management permit is valid for trees located on BLM-administered lands only.

Other permit prices including boating and backcountry camping permits will remain unchanged.

The department is reviewing the ruling and expects to work with others to see if they will appeal, department spokesman Keith Guille said Wednesday.

The ruling sends the matter back to the Forest Service to address the issue.

Soliciting -- asking for or selling something -- is illegal on city property unless the person has a permit from the city.

The BLM recommends Engelmann spruce, sub-alpine fir, Douglas fir, ponderosa pine and lodgepole pine as the best species for your Christmas tree.

The facility would be located in a previously mined area in northern Wyoming near the small ranching community of Ranchester.

Ramaco CEO Randall Atkins says he's disappointed and the company will need to start over with permitting after almost five years of work.
