elected caucus member for Wordcraft
Circle: Native Writers and
Schoolie '98 Timber sale-
The Timber Committee has re
leased a final draft of the Schoolie
'98 Timber sale for public review.
The document was prepared by the
Project Interdisciplinary Team to
provide options for a timber harvest
in the Beaver and Upper Warm
Springs forest planning units begin
ning in 1998.
Three alternatives were formu
lated and numerous logging methods
were considered for this project,
taking into account present resource
conditions, forest health and public
input. The sale is expected to yield
approximately 35 million board feet
of gross volume timber.
The document is divided into
sections explaining the purpose and
need for action, resource-based in
dicators used to help the technical
staff analyze and mitigate environ
mental impacts, and details of the
three alternatives. There are maps
showing the harvest blocks, quick
reference tables to compare the al
ternatives, a list of measures needed
to mitigate environmental conse
quences, and the Project Interdisci
plinary Team's recommended alter
native. The goal of Alternative A is to
continue current management. Ac
tivities such as livestock grazing,
hunting, recreation and cultural food
gathering would continue as in the
past. The only harvest proposed un
der Alternative A would be through
sal vage operations that removes trees
killed by fire, wind, insects or other
causes.
The emphasis of Alternative B is
to treat stands with high forest health
problems. Under Alternative B, a net
timber harvest of 32 million board
feet would take place on 1 ,509 acres,
primarily through commercial thins
and shelterwood prescriptions.
The emphasis of Alternative C is
to treat stands with high and moder
ate forest health problems. Under
Alternatives C, a net timber harvest
of 31 million board feet of timber
would take place on 1,417 acres,
primarily through commercial thins
and shelterwoods.
The alternatives would have
varying impacts on water, fish, wild
life, cultural, timber, range, soil and
economic resources. There would
also be some changes to the transpor
tation system, which would include
eradication of unnecessary roads.
For more information or copies of
the document contact Matt Jimenez
or Rich Lohman in the Forestry De
partment, or call 553-2416. Tribal
members have 30 days to comment
on the proposed sale.
