San Juan Fuels Management, Wildlife Habitat Management, and Timber Harvest Projects

Короткий зміст

The Forest Service is preparing an environmental impact statement (EIS) for a proposal to implement a Fuels and Wildlife improvement project on the Nevada County Ranger District. This project intends to utilize vegetative manipulation, biomass removal, and prescribed fire to lower existing fire hazards and improve wildlife habitat in the project area. Some timber will be harvested to help accomplish desired levels of crown closures and spacing of standing trees. The Notice of Intent to prepare an Environmental Impact Statement was published in the Federal Register on Wednesday, March 12, 1997 [Volume 62, Number 48, Page 11413-11414]. That Notice announced the project name as San Juan Wildlife and Fuels Improvement Projects; now, the name has been changed to San Juan Fuels Management, Wildlife Habitat Management, and Timber Harvest Projects.
