Abstract

This environmental assessment (EA) discloses the predicted environmental effects of two projects on federal land located within the Upper Alsea River and Marys River Watersheds. Project 1 (Roadside Hazard Tree Removal/Roadside Enhancement) is a proposal to remove immediate and potentially future hazard trees and reduce fuel loadings and fire hazard risk adjacent to a backcountry byway [South Fork Alsea Access Road (Rd. # 146- 34.1)]. Project 2 (Park Enhancement) is a proposal to remove hazard trees, enhance stand health in addition to providing a visually appealing and safe park for visitors within the Alsea Falls Recreation Site.
