Abstract

Strategic document addresses the ecological significance of eastern Cascade disturbance regimes and the need to provide late-successional habitat conditions for species such as the northern spotted owl. The assessment identifies management activities needed to: (1) reduce the risk of habitat loss from catastrophic disturbances such as fire, insects, and disease, and (2) sustain late-successional habitats whether the goal is to provide fire or climatic late-successional conditions. Also examines current activities, providing recommendations for maintaininng, restricting or eliminating them.
