U.S. Rep. Doug Collins, R-Gainesville, has introduced a bill that would allow the sale of 3,841 “underused” acres in the Gainesville-based Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forests. It’s a move, Collins said, that would “boost Northeast Georgia’s recreation and economy.” “This bill would eliminate federal waste, saving taxpayer money and provide more opportunities to Georgians from around the state to enjoy our beautiful region,” he said.
