The DN amends the land management plans for the Deschutes, Fremont-Winema, Malheur, Ochoco, Umatilla, and Wallowa-Whitman National Forests in Oregon and southeast Washington. The DN documents the rationale for approving the amendment. The amendment replaces the 21-inch standard with a guideline that emphasizes recruitment of a combination of old trees and large trees. Analysis of the proposed action resulted in a finding of no significant impact on the quality of the human environment. Legal notice of approval of the final decision was published in the Federal Register on January 15, 2021 (86 Fed. Reg. 3990). As a courtesy, legal notices of the final decision are also being published in the Baker City Herald, Bend Bulletin, Blue Mountain Eagle, East Oregonian, and the Herald and News, which are the newspapers of record for the affected national forests. The Forest Management Direction for Large Diameter Trees in Eastern Oregon is effective immedi- ately (36 CFR 219.17(a)(2)). There is no opportunity to object to the Under Secretary’s decision. A decision signed by the Under Secretary for Natural Resources and Environment constitutes the final administrative determination by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (36 CFR 219.51(b)).
