Abstract
The applicant, Plum Creek Timber Company, has requested permanent access to their lands by amendment to R.W.A. S-347 (OR44513). Use of an existing BLM road #11-10-12 and construction of approximately 400-feet of ridge top road on BLM land would be necessary to access and manage Plum Creek Timber Company lands. Prior to using the existing road located upon BLM land, and in order to construct the proposed new road upon BLM land, the affected property would need to be added to the existing R.W.A. S-347. The allocated part of the section to be added would be limited to the E 1/2 E 1/2 NE 1/4 NW 1/4 SW 1/4 of Section 12, Township 11 South, Range 10 West, to assure that no future Plum Creek Timber Company development would occur without BLM analysis and approval. In the proposed action, BLM would allow the construction of the ridge top road to avoid the potential detrimental consequences of Plum Creek Timber Companies alternative route (construction on mid-sloped, full bench ground).
