Abstract:
EA proposes three projects on land within the Mill Creek-South Yamhill River; Upper South Yamhill River; and Upper Siletz River Watersheds. Project 1 (Density Management) is a proposal to enhance the development of late seral forest habitat on approximately 273 acres of early to mid-seral forest land. Project 2 (Meadow Restoration) is a proposal to restore four small meadows by felling selected conifers. Project 3 (Coarse Woody Debris/Snag Creation) is a proposal to create down wood and snags on approximately 172 acres adjacent to the proposed density management area for terrestrial habitat improvement. The actions would occur within Late-Successional Reserve (LSR) and Riparian Reserve (RR) Land Use Allocations (LUA) within the North Coast Adaptive Management Area. FONSI finds no environmental impact statement is needed.
