East Otter Fuels
Reduction Project
|
The Ashland Ranger District is proposing to reduce hazardous
fuel conditions and lower the potential for high severity stand
replacing wild-land fire on National Forest System (NFS) lands
in an area located northeast of Highway 212. The East Otter Hazardous
Fuels Reduction Project is an authorized project under the Healthy
Forest Restoration Act (HFRA) criteria. The northern portion of
the Ashland Ranger District, which includes the project area,
was identified in the Powder River County Wildfire Protection
Plan (PRCWPP) as the highest priority for fuel reduction within
the two million acre county.
This Environmental Assessment (EA) discusses the findings of
analysis conducted for the East Otter Hazardous Fuels Reduction
Project.
Project Area Description
The project area consists of approximately 4,276 acres of National
Forest System lands located approximately 10 air miles northeast
of Ashland, Montana and is east and west of the East Fork Otter
Creek Road, specifically: The legal description is T2S, R46E,
sections10, 11, 15, 14, 22, 23, 24, 26, 27, 25; T2S, R47E sections
