    Griz thin decision memo
    (2008-09-19) Siuslaw National Forest (Agency : U.S.)
    Announces decision to enhance the development of late successional habitat and improve habitat diversity by: 1. Commercially thinning about 66 acres of stand 507089; 2. Creating stand diversity by applying a mixture of thinning regimes in the stand and under planting about 43 acres; 3. Increasing structural diversity by falling and leaving about 330 trees as coarse wood and creating about 396 snags in the stand; 4. Creating a 3/4 acre meadow at the end of the existing temporary road; and 5. Adding about 50 pieces of large wood by hand to the largest stream adjacent to the unit.

    Lobster landscape management project environmental assessment
    (2006-09) Central Coast Ranger District (Or.)
    Proposes a package of associated terrestrial and watershed restoration actions, including commercially thinning about 3,003 acres to speed the development of late-successional habitat in plantations now 20 to 58 years-old, improve existing diversity in plantations, non-commercially thinning about 212 acres of plantations generally less than 20 years-old to speed their development, decommissioning about 5 miles of roads and closing about 47 miles of roads to help restore watershed health, and repairing and maintaining about 18 miles of key forest roads and about 42 miles of non-key forest roads.

    Siuslaw thinning and underplanting for diversity study -- Phase II environmental assessment
    (2007-05) Hebo Ranger District (Agency : U.S.); Central Coast Ranger District (Or.)
    Proposes to continue long-term objectives of learning about effects to overstory trees from overstory density treatments, learning how overstory treatments affect understory trees, and learning how treatments affect understory species diversity. Includes density management treatments reducing the areas with 60 trees per acre to about 17 trees per acre, reducint the areas with 100 trees per acre to about 40 per acre, and measuring thinning and yarding impacts, dead wood decay rates, and artificial and natural recruitment rates of dead wood.

    (2008-02) Central Coast Ranger District (Or.)
    Proposes a package of associated terrestrial and watershed restoration actions, including commercially thinning and creating dead wood and openings in plantations 20 to 58 years-old, non-commercially thinning plantations generally less than 20 years-old, creating and maintaining meadows, decommissioning or closing roads, repairing and maintaining key and non-key forest roads, adding large wood to streams, and planting conifers and hardwoods in riparian areas.
