Peterson School of Forest Resources A state and transition approach was used to model and map fuelbed, fire hazard, and carbon change under different management and fire regimes for the Okanogan- Wenatchee National Forest in central Washington. Landscape metrics showed different patterns of change over time depending upon the metric considered and the fire and management regime modeled. Fuelbeds characteristic of older forest conditions became more common during the first ~100 years of simulation (coverage increased 5 – 20%), except in those locations where wet forests subject to stand-replacement fire occur (coverage decreased 6 – 12%).

    IMAGINE 2040 – Survey Results Report A JOINTLY CONDUCTED PUBLIC VISIONING SURVEY BY THE HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY CITY-COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSION AND THE HILLSBOROUGH METROPOLITAN PLANNING ORGANIZATION FOR TRANSPORTATION 601 E. Kennedy, 18th Floor Published January 2014 P.O. Box 1110 Tampa, FL33601-1110 813/272-5940 FAX 813/272-6258 FAX 813/272-6255 [email protected] www.planhillsborough.org 1. Introduction Survey Purpose and Scope The Planning Commission and Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) embarked in 2013 on a scenario planning exercise to lay the groundwork for updating our county’s and three cities’ Comprehensive Plans simultaneously with our countywide Long Range Transportation Plan. Called “Imagine 2040”, the effort began with a working group made up of citizens, staff and private sector representatives. The group was instrumental in highlighting issues and formulating three distinctly different growth strategies to evaluate for their benefits, costs and impacts. The centerpiece of the Imagine 2040 initiative was a highly visual, interactive survey of citizens to obtain their preferences, priorities and asking the fundamental question “How should we grow?” In particular, the survey asked the public to weigh in on three different growth strategies. The results will guide the updates of the Comprehensive Plans and the Long Range Transportation Plan based on a horizon year of 2040. The survey employed an online public engagement tool created by a vendor called Metroquest, as well as a companion paper survey questionnaire for use by people without access to the Internet, or for use at public meetings when Internet access was not practical. Upon starting the survey, shown in Figure 1.1, participants were asked to rate their top five priorities, with choices such as “Access to Jobs,” “Available Bus or Rail Service” and “Efficient Water Use,” among others.

    Planning.comments.f To: [email protected] [email protected] cc: s Subject: 02/07/2009 09:20 AM Submitted by: Walter Dent<br>At: [email protected]<br>Remark: After attending the last meeting I would like to stress that I believe at this time we have enough wilderness areas in the state of Virginia. Untouched areas of \"wilderness\" may seem like a good idea to some but what it really does is cut the effectiveness of the Forest Service to manage the land. As you are aware of, wilderness areas can be devastated by Gypsy moth infestation, tree diseases, ice storms and fire to name a few and the FS will be helpless to implement any recovery plans. I also believe a lot of the interest for new wilderness is not brought here by local people that actually use the forest but by special interest groups who have never been to the GW/JNF and have their own agendas. I feel that the back country designation achieves everything a wilderness area designation does with out tying the hands of the FS. I would also like to voice my concerns over OHV trails in the national forest. At this time there are a documented 244 miles designated OHV trails in the forest. Unfortunately, I and many others can\'t tell the difference between a \"High vehicle clearance\" roads and a normal fire road. We as the OHV community are all for protecting the environment and treading lightly as witnessed by all the volunteer actions such as trail clean ups, trail repairs and assisting the forest service in various OHV projects, but if a trail is maintained at a level that a non high clearance vehicle can navigate it, then the \"High vehicle clearance\" designation is moot.

WALCOTT, Director United States Geological Survey. 3 A GAZETTEER OF WEST VIRGINIA. HENRY GANNETT. DESCRIPTION OF THE STATE. The State of West Virginia was cut off from Virginia during the civil war and was admitted to the Union on June 19, 1863. As orig­ inally constituted it consisted of 48 counties; subsequently, in 1866, it was enlarged by the addition -of two counties, Berkeley and Jeffer­ son, which were also detached from Virginia. The boundaries of the State are in the highest degree irregular. Starting at Potomac River at Harpers Ferry,' the line follows the south bank of the Potomac to the Fairfax Stone, which was set to mark the headwaters of the North Branch of Potomac River; from this stone the line runs due north to Mason and Dixon's line, i. e., the southern boundary of Pennsylvania; thence it follows this line west to the southwest corner of that State, in approximate latitude 39° 43i' and longitude 80° 31', and from that corner north along the western boundary of Pennsylvania until the line intersects Ohio River; from this point the boundary runs southwest down the Ohio, on the northwestern bank, to the mouth of Big Sandy River.
