Abstract

EA proposes that approximately 50 conifer trees scattered over 25 acres affecting meadow habitat or competing with oak trees that are greater than 24" DBHOB would be felled and utilized for in-stream aquatic habitat enhancement work. The project would include the placement of approximately 50 pieces of large woody debris (LWD) in Maxfield Creek using selected trees from upland treatment areas and transported to the stream via helicopter. Also includes reduction of the amount and continuity of surface fuels.
