Zusammenfassung
EA proposes conducting density management on approximately 304 acres of 40 to 50 year old stands within LSR and RR LUAs. This project would occur through a timber sale (K-Line LSR Enhancement). Approximately 304 acres would be thinned to a variable density (basal area ranging from 80 to 120 sq. ft/acre). Approximately 5% of the treatment area would have gaps (approximately 15, one acre patch cuts) created and approximately 2% of the treatment area would have clumps (approximately 1/4 acre untreated areas) created. The intent of the proposed action is to create stand structural diversity and to produce a timber sale to be offered in fiscal year 2007. Trees would be skyline yarded on approximately 83 acres and ground based yarded on approximately 221 acres. New road construction, reconstruction, road renovation and road decommissioning of new and reconstructed roads over which timber hauling would occur are also a part of the proposed action. FONSI finds no need for environmental impact statement.
