Abstract
The selected action will include prescribed broadcast burning applied to two areas totaling about 280 acres. In preparation for prescribed broadcast burning, brush and nonmerchantable
trees will be felled within planned burn areas, where cutting has not previously occurred or there is an additional need due to re-growth. Control lines will consist of Roads #10-5-20.1, 10-5-20, 10-6-14, and Pit Road and handlines constructed along the property boundaries connecting roads. Burning will be conducted in the spring or fall during periods of vegetation dormancy. Prescribed broadcast burning intensity will be sufficient to reduce understory shrub layers, reduce thatch, and improve conditions for the germination and growth of native species.
