Abstract:
The purpose for the proposed action is to provide access for Starker Forests for their management
purposes. There is a need to authorize use of existing BLM administered roads and approximately 500
feet of new construction on BLM managed land.
Starker Forests Inc. is requesting permanent access on approximately 1.05 miles of the following
existing BLM controlled Roads: 14-7-5.1 B, C (part), 14-7-5.2 A-B and 14-7-5.5 A-B (see EA Map).
The 0.18 mile of Road #14-7-5.1 Segment B located in the SW 1/4 NE 1/4 of Section 5 is controlled by
BLM under Exclusive Easement #RE S-354. The easement is not currently detailed into RWA S-754,
making the addition to the agreement a discretionary action. To facilitate Starker Forests Inc. requested new construction, BLM will add the following lands to the
agreement: S 1/2 NW 1/4 SW 1/4 SW 1/4 of Section 5 T. 14 S., R. 7 W. That will confine the new construction
to a strip of land containing a stand of 30 year old reproduction timber.
