Item Open Access Coos Bay FY 2009 fire line construction categorical exclusion review(2008-10-11) United States. Bureau of Land Management. Coos Bay DistrictCategorically excludes fire line construction project in support of slash disposal operations. The topography and terrain often dictate where the location for fire lines is most beneficial. The checkerboard ownership pattern often necessitates that an adjacent landowner locate fire lines on neighboring BLM lands. Fire lines would be strategically located on both BLM and privately owned lands thus maximizing prescribed fire managers opportunities to safely contain and control the prescribed burn. Proper location of fire lines will reduce the chances of an escaped fire and thereby help to reduce potential impacts to watershed resources in the general area of the burn operations. Seasonal restrictions may be required to minimize impacts to T&E species, as outlined in the current Biological Opinion. Fire lines would be cleared of vegetation to a width of eight (8) feet. Within the fire line the fire trail would be cleared to mineral soil to a width of three (3) feet. Water bars would be constructed across all fire trails following the slope guidelines below. Water bars would consist of a six inch deep trench oriented at a 30- to 45-degree angle with respect to the fire line. Water bars would extend approximately six inches beyond the width of the fire trail.Item Open Access Remote Control timber sale decision record and finding of no significant impact(2008-12-22) United States. Bureau of Land Management. Coos Bay DistrictAnnounces implementation of project EA, providing approximately 8.5 million board feet (MMbf) of timber through regeneration harvest. This volume would count toward the Coos Bay District's annual ASQ of 27 MMbf and would also incrementally diminish the disparity between the actual decadal regeneration harvest volume and the District's ROD anticipated decadal regeneration harvest volume.Item Open Access Remote Control timber sale environmental assessment(2008-11-21) United States.
