This BLM grant aims to enhance forest health and wildlife habitat across various forested and non-forested ecosystems. Activities include commercial and non-commercial forest thinning, reducing hazardous fuel conditions, and removing invasive plant species that displace native vegetation. The project also involves seeding appropriate wildlife browse and forage for habitat enhancement, alongside seeding for erosion and noxious weed control on disturbed areas. Additional work may cover the layout of treatment unit boundaries, timber marking under BLM supervision, and the removal of hazardous non-functional fences. Post-treatment monitoring and adaptive management strategies are also potential components of this initiative.

| Description: | Improve forest health and wildlife habitat through a variety of treatments in a variety of forested and non-forested ecosystems. The project will include both commercial and non-commercial thinning of forests, treatment of vegetation to reduce hazardous fuel conditions, removal of plant species that have expanded beyond their normal range (in the face of changed disturbance regimes) and are replacing more desirable species on the specific site, seeding of appropriate wildlife browse and forage species for habitat enhancement, and seeding for erosion and noxious weed control on sites disturbed by management activities. The project may also include layout of treatment unit boundaries and timber marking (both under the direct supervision of BLM staff) and removal of non-functional fences that now pose a hazard to the public and wildlife. Post-treatment monitoring and adaptive management may be included. |
