Captured March 3, 2009.Announces decision to authorize project improving mule deer winter range and promote the growth of large diameter ponderosa pine. This will be accomplished on up to 300 acres by thinning conifer stands from below, mowing brush, and reintroducing prescribed fire. About 420,000 board feet (MBF) of timber will be removed through stand density reduction to promote the development of Late Old Structure (LOS) ponderosa pine forest. In addition, about 3 miles of road will be closed to restore hydrologic function to lower Fly Creek and about 10 acres of spotted knapweed, an invasive plant, will be hand pulled to reduce the risk of spread.en-USPrescribed burning -- Oregon -- Deschutes National ForestMule deer -- Habitat -- Oregon -- Deschutes National ForestForest thinning -- Oregon -- Deschutes National ForestForest management -- Oregon -- Deschutes National ForestOther
