OHV use would not be permitted in riparian areas, scablands, or slopes over 30%, no more than 10% of new trails would be located in riparian areas and 20% in scablands, and visitor education, signing, understandable travel maps, use of volunteers, and partnership are emphasized. Record of Decision announces decision to implement Alternative D of FEIS.
