The St. Joe Ranger District of the Idaho Panhandle National Forest is considering vegetation activities in the East Slate Project. The project area is located approximately one mile west of the town of Avery on the St. Joe River. The interdisciplinary team has reviewed the current conditions which indicated the project area could benefit from treatment. The purpose and need is summarized below. 1. Reduce the risk of blending genetic material from poorly adapted, non-local ponderosa pine trees planted earlier this century with that of the native ponderosa pine. Replace the poorly adapted trees with more sustainable native species. 2. Speed development of larger stand structures with large trees and reverse the trend toward increasing dominance by mid and late succession species. 3. Maintain larch dominance where it is a significant stand component. 4. Promote vegetation structures and compositions that are more consistent with those which naturally occur under fire and pathogen disturbance regimes. 5. Restore western white pine. 6. Contribute wood to the local timber supply when timber is feasible and cost effective and can help achieve landscape objectives. 7. Improve big game wildlife habitat. 8. Promote conditions for safe and effective control of prescribed fires and wildfires. 9. Provide a safer vehicle turn-around at gate on Road #1934. The project consists of vegetation management, including timber harvesting and associated road construction and prescribed burning. It also plans for wildlife habitat improvement and natural fuels reduction through burning.
