It is such an incredibly remote area and the people there NEED to keep their post office. It is such a long, difficult journey, in even the best weather, to get to the next nearest Post Office. Please keep it running!

We rely on the postal service so I can forward important documents, business correspondences and personal letters to him. Furthermore, I'm shocked that the postal service would even consider removing service from such a small isolated community that depends so much on their mail. Please reconsider this decision that could have devastating consequences to such a rural community.

The Board of Supervisors of Siskiyou County and I strongly support my constituents in their efforts to retain current services at the Forks of Salmon Post office

]]> Thu, 19 Apr 2012 06:45:36 UTC 12588179 https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/12588000?utm_medium=rss I know USPS is economizing, but a remote location like Forks of Salmon 96031 is a really poor choice for closure. Will affect many people who cannot drive at all or the enormous distance that a close P.O. will impose. Closing it will also destroy jobs for people who really need them in that distressed region. Please keep the post office open in Forks of Salmon CA.

They are isolated and it would be an extreme hardship to go the 40 miles one way/80 miles round trip. If you have ever been there, you would know there are no highways to drive on, but narrow one lane, hairpin turn mountain roads to travel. There are several post offices in my neighborhood, close one of them before you close this one.

If you close down the Post Office there is only a few ways in or out and it takes gas and time that most just do not have. Going to the next town just isn't an option that is possible. Who wants to spend 4 hrs of their day just to pick up their mail everyday??
