dc.description.abstractEA proposes that older forest legacy trees (mature open-grown trees or old-growth remnant trees) that occur in densely-stocked conifer stands (30 to 90 years old) will be released through the felling, girdling and topping of individual trees or creation of gaps (1/4 acre to one acre in size). Treatments in selected forest stands will release the older forest legacy trees so that this complex crown structure will be released from adjacent tree competition for light and water. The majority of trees targeted to be felled, topped or girdled will be 7 to 19 inches DBHOB (diameter breast height outside bark) Douglas-fir trees and none will be greater than 30 inches DBHOB. The felled, girdled or topped trees will function as snags and CWD adjacent to older forest legacy trees. Trees will not be felled within the SPZ (stream protection zone) which consists of a buffer along streams and identified wet areas (minimum distance of 50 feet from streams). Some felled trees will be removed for use as fish logs where large woody structures are lacking. FONSI finds no environmental impact statement is needed.en
