The same board approved a master plan in 2005 that prohibited ATV use, citing the potential for excessive noise and damage.

According to a report in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, state officials noted that communities adjacent to the 232,000-acre forest allow ATVs on roadways and area businesses support expanded access to the public land.

A 2015 state law also required the Department of Natural Resources to plan for motorized recreation on land controlled by the agency.
