| dc.description.abstract | Proposes vegetation and fuels management on about 13,900 acres to improve the health, and vigor of the upland forest, and reduce the potential for future fires of uncharacteristic effects in upland forests through the reduction of hazardous fuels and reduction of ladder fuels. Vegetation management treatments include commercial thinning of about 2,218 acres, mechanical fuels treatment of 2,113 acres of standing dead and downed woody material and reduction of conifer regeneration resulting from the late 1980s and early 1990s spruce bud worm outbreak, noncommercial thinning of about 1,186 acres and treatment of surface fuels on about 10,288 acres. Maintenance of existing roads (39 miles of open and 41 miles closed), construction of a new system road for 2.2 miles, obliteration of 2.4 miles, and construction of about 3.6 miles of temporary road would be required for access and haul purposes. | en |
