Lassen National Forest has changed the hours during which its main office in Susanville is open to the public. Effective immediately, the new office hours are 7:45 a.m. through 4:30 p.m. The old hours were 8:00 a.m. through 4:30 p.m.
One of the main goals of the change was to make the Lassen National Forest office hours and those of the Bureau of Land Management consistent. The two federal agencies share office space at 2550 Riverside Drive.
“It may sound like a small change, but we believe that extra 15 minutes makes a difference,” said Lassen National Forest Administrative Officer Quentin Perkins.
“Many people have jobs that start at 8:00. We’ve already received feedback from grateful visitors who appreciate having those extra few minutes to stop by the office to pick up a map or other information before work.”
