Publish, Sept. 4, 11, 18, 2002 Biscuit Fire officials list closed sites with plans for rehab By SHERRI HOPPER Several residents of Illi- nois Valley attended a Thursday, Aug. 29 meeting at Jubilee Park to discuss the status of the Biscuit Fire. One issue addressed by fire officials during the meeting was public access to areas affected by the for- est fire. Rob Shull, a U.S. Forest Service supervisor, explained that assessment of the area for public safety would first have to occur before opening areas now closed. According to Shull, opening Bear Camp Road, which runs between Grants Pass and the coast, is a pri- ority. The forest service hopes to eventually establish overlooks on the road for viewing the fire area. As far as the interior of the fire, roads will have to be assessed for a number of hazards, as well as making sure public access does not hamper rehabilitation ef- forts. Rehabilitation of areas affected by suppression ac- tivities and also of the burned area, have now come to the forefront with crews working to rehabilitate the containment lines. Also a Burned Area Emergency Rehabilitation (BAER) team has begun work on the analysis and prescription for preparing the area for winter rains. Members of Mike Mor- com’s Blue Mountain Inter- agency team also attended the meeting. Team members explained the current situa- tion. There are still interior areas burning, but the only active portion of the fire is in the Pistol River area, they said. Smoke was another con- cern to those in attendance. It was explained that while smoke levels will continue to diminish, smoke may continue to be an issue until the fire is completely out -- an event that may not take place until winter rains be- gin. Another question was about missing hiker Michael Woods. Pam Bode, Illinois Valley-Galice District ranger, said that the forest service is working with Jo- sephine County Emergency Management to begin searching for the missing hiker. It has previously been too smoky and dangerous to begin to try to locate the hiker, who left to hike through the Kalmiopsis Wil- derness just days previous to the start of the fire.
