Use_Constraints:

The Malheur, Umatilla, and Wallowa-Whitman National Forest cannot assure the reliability or suitability of this information for a particular purpose. Original data was compiled from various sources. Spatial information may not meet National Map Accuracy Standards. This information may be updated without notification. The user of this data will read and fully comprehend the metadata prior to use of the data. Data will not be used beyond the limits of the source scale. The data set is not a survey document and should not be utilized as such.

Process_Description:

Replaced boundary line between the Malheur and Wallowa-Whitman forests with the province LSA line so that it will match. Difference was less than 0.7 acre. Also took out a small polygon within the wilderness that had the same attributes.

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

A portion of the Eagle Cap Wilderness boundary was incorrect in T6S R43E Sec 2. Alp Wilderness boundary shows the Boundary Recreation Residences and roads as within the wilderness. The official wilderness document as well as BLM Land Status Plattes do not show this. I have modified the ALP line to match the official document boundary. Also an incorrect piece in T20S R43E SEction 15 was modified to reflect what is in the offical wilderness document.
