Abstract
Announces decision to commercially thin 170 MBF from 70 acres along 1-2 miles of Forest Roads 5209 and 5209-916 in order to improve sustainability and promote stand vigor by reducing
competition for light, nutrients, and moisture; encourage healthy stands with species compositions
within the range of natural variability; reduce the probability of epidemic level infestations of
insects and disease; and reduce ladder fuels to lessen the likelihood of high intensity fires.
