PUBLIC SCOPING NOTICE The Emigrant Creek Ranger District of the Malheur National Forest is proposing the Flat Vegetation Management project in the Flat planning area. The Flat Vegetation Management Project is located on the Malheur National Forest, Emigrant Creek and Blue Mountain Ranger Districts, Upper Silvies River watershed, Camp Creek, Dog Creek-Silvies River, Flat Creek-Silvies River, and Mountain Creek subwatersheds, within Harney and Grant Counties. The proposal includes landscape restoration activities, biomass removal, landscape scale prescribed burning activities, and forest road activities. An Environmental Assessment should form the basis for a decision. The Flat project was developed in cooperation with the Harney County Restoration Collaborative (HCRC). The project proposes to treat almost 26,400 acres of vegetation with commercial and non-commercial treatments. Landscape scale fuel treatments are also proposed across 46,728 acres. Forest road activities would include closing, decommissioning and opening roads. Additionally, typical road maintenance activities designed to meet Malheur Forest Plan standards and guidelines would be performed. For more information about the proposed action, a scoping package can be obtained from the Emigrant Creek District Office in Hines, Oregon or on the Malheur National Forest website at http://www.fs.usda.gov/project/?project=47364 This project is a non-fuels reduction act (HFRA) project, and is subject to the Project-Level Pre-decisional Administrative Review Process (Objection process) as identified in 36 CFR 218, Subparts A and B. Individuals and entities (non-governmental organizations, businesses, partnerships, state and local governments, Alaska Native Corporations, and Indian Tribes) who have submitted timely, specific written comments regarding a proposed project or activity during any designated opportunity for public comment may file an objection. Opportunity for public comment on an Environmental Assessment includes during scoping, the 30 day public review period, or any other instance where the responsible official seeks written comments. Written comments are those submitted to the responsible official or designee during a designated opportunity for public participation provided for a proposed project. Specific written comments should be within the scope of the proposed action, have a direct relationship to the proposed action, and must include supporting reasons for the responsible official to consider. During this scoping phase of the NEPA process, we are seeking input, either verbal or written. We are interested in any site specific issues, concerns or opportunities that you think need to be considered in the development of this analysis. Please submit your comments by January 6th, 2017 to Lori Bailey at 265 Highway 20 South, Hines Oregon 97738, or telephone (541) 573-4300. Comments may also be emailed to: comments-pacificnorthwest-malheur-emigrantcreek@ fs.fed.us. Thank you for your interest in the management of the Malheur National Forest.
