Motorized Travel Management
Inyo National Forest Travel Management EIS – August 2009 Chapter 3: Affected Environment and Environmental Consequences 3.1 Introduction This Chapter summarizes the physical, biological, social, and economic environments that are affected by the Proposed Action and alternatives and the effects (or consequences) that would result from implementation of those alternatives. The effects disclosed in this Chapter provide the scientific and analytical basis for comparison of the benefits and risks of the alternatives. The Affected Environment Section under each resource topic describes the existing, or baseline, condition against which environmental effects of the alternatives were evaluated and from which progress toward the desired condition can be measured. Environmental consequences form the scientific and analytical basis for comparison of alternatives through compliance with standards set forth in the 1988 Inyo National Forest Land and Resource Management Plan (also referred to as the Forest Plan or LRMP), as amended, and monitoring required by the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) and National Forest Management Act of 1976. The environmental consequences discussion centers on direct, indirect, and cumulative effects of the alternatives, including recommended mitigation measures. Effects can be neutral, beneficial, or adverse. These terms are defined as follows: • Direct effects are caused by the action and occur at the same place and time as the action. • Indirect effects are caused by the action and are later in time, or further removed in distance, but are still reasonably foreseeable. • Cumulative effects are those that result from the incremental impact of the action when added to other past, present, and reasonably foreseeable future actions. -

Scott Mclean: from the CAL FIRE Information Center, I'm Scott Mclean with the CAL FIRE Report for Monday, September 9, 2019. L
Scott McLean: From the CAL FIRE Information Center, I’m Scott McLean with the CAL FIRE Report for Monday, September 9, 2019. Last week, fire activity kicked into high gear starting with another round of dry lightning across much of the north early in the week, and continuing into the weekend with some high winds and very low humidity. In all, 361 new wildfires sparked in the last week in California, of which 239 were in CAL FIRE’s jurisdiction. You can see that our yearly acreage stats took a significant jump as well, with 47,847 acres now burned across CAL FIRE’s jurisdiction this year, for a grand total of 128,750 acres across all jurisdictions. Switching over to our statewide fire map, you can see that as of today, firefighters are currently battling 18 significant wildfires from San Diego County all the way north to Siskiyou County. A good portion of those were sparked by that lightning that I mentioned earlier, especially those up north and in the higher elevations. Let’s zoom in for a closer look at a few of the larger significant fires. We’ll start in Tehama County with the Red Bank Fire. That fire started on Thursday afternoon in a very remote location West of Red Bluff, making firefighter access very difficult. With more on the Red Bank Fire, Deputy Ops Chief Jarrod Clinkenbeard prepared this video with the latest. Jarrod Clinkenbeard: Hello, I’m Jarrod Clinkenbeard, Deputy Operations, CAL FIRE Incident Management Team 5. Today’s situational update for the Red Bank Incident for Monday, November 9. -
