The USDA Forest Service will prepare an environmental impact statement (EIS) to disclose the environmental effect of removing trees damaged by a severe snowstorm that occurred in February 1998, and severe wind storms that occurred in April and May 1998. The areas under consideration for this proposal include approximately 3400 acres on the Stearns and Somerest Ranger Districts within the Daniel Boone National Forest. Pine trees that will be removed include trees that are downed; trees that have 50% or more of the live crown missing or damaged; uprooted trees; or leaning and root sprung trees. Hardwood trees that will be removed include trees that are downed, uprooted, leaning and root sprung. Other damaged standing trees may be removed for public safety or logging access. The proposed method of removal is to use salvage timber sales which may include the use of helicopter, cable yarding, and ground skidding methods. Skidding methods may use motorized equipment or animals. Connected actions include construction of temporary roads, maintenance of existing roads, and erosion control measures to minimize soil movement.
