Abstract

Announces decision selecting Alternative 3, thinning the stands with a focus on accelerating the development of late successional stand characteristics in critical habitat for the northern spotted owl and increasing time between harvest entries. With this modification, Alternative 3 commercially thins about 1272 acres of 30-60 year-old, even-aged managed stands in the Park/Lost Lake, Hackleman and Smith subwatersheds to increase growth and vigor of residual trees; accelerate development of structural and compositional diversity.
