This outlet misquotes the original article in subtle but important ways. Here’s the pertinent quote from the original:

“the U.S. Forest Service is planning to consolidate its 10 regional offices into as few as three. USFS' research team, which focuses on priorities such as new tools to model fire risk, markets, forest restoration and water and employs around 1,500 people, is expected to face cuts”

Thanks, I posted this article at the same time you did but I also misquoted it in my post so that I could squeeze the points into the character limit.

Yeah, I Figured the difference btwn “down to 3” vs “as few as 3” and “be cut” vs “face cuts” was importantly
