Abstract:	EA proposes vegetation and fuels management on about 10,000 acres to improve the health and vigor of the upland forest, and reduce the potential for future fires of uncharacteristic effects in upland forests. Includes commercial thinning of about 2400 acres, treatment of 40 acres of dead and downed woody material resulting from the 2000/2001 tussock moth outbreak, precommercial thinning of about 700 acres, treatment of surface fuels on about 10,000 acres, and reconstruction and maintenance of existing roads and construction of about 4 miles of temporary roads. Decision notice announces implementation of Alternative 4 with minor modifications, reducing big game vulnerability by not treating the existing satisfactory wildlife cover.
