    Ag47 projects environmental assessment and finding of no significant impact
    (2004-08) United States. Bureau of Land Management. Salem District
    Proposes three projects. Project 1, the Ag47 timber sale, is a proposal to commercially thin approximately 432 acres. Project 2, Riparian Treatment without wood removal in the sections containing units of the Ag47 timber sale, is a proposal to create snags, CWD, wolf trees and small openings in Riparian Reserves with several small scale projects to enhance wildlife habitat. Project 3, Thomas Creek LSR Enhancement, is a proposal to improve habitat conditions by density management thinning (with wood removal) on approximately 67 acres of 40-50 year old plantations in Late Successional Reserve. Project 3 would also include other small scale treatment projects, without wood removal, adjacent to the stands proposed for thinning. FONSI finds no environmental impact statement is needed.

    Maxfield Creek density management project 1 upland habitat restoration final decision and decision rationale
    (2008-06) United States. Bureau of Land Management. Salem District
    The selected action will include prescribed broadcast burning applied to two areas totaling about 280 acres. In preparation for prescribed broadcast burning, brush and nonmerchantable trees will be felled within planned burn areas, where cutting has not previously occurred or there is an additional need due to re-growth. Control lines will consist of Roads #10-5-20.1, 10-5-20, 10-6-14, and Pit Road and handlines constructed along the property boundaries connecting roads. Burning will be conducted in the spring or fall during periods of vegetation dormancy. Prescribed broadcast burning intensity will be sufficient to reduce understory shrub layers, reduce thatch, and improve conditions for the germination and growth of native species.
