We have reviewed the Notice of Intent (NOI), detailed Proposed Action (PA), and supporting materials posted on the Region 5 planning website and offer the following comments on these documents. We have submitted numerous comment letters since the forest plan revision process was initiated for the Inyo, Sequoia, and Sierra national forests. Specifically, we submitted comment letters on the forest assessments for each national forest (Sierra Forest Legacy et al. 2013a, Sierra Forest Legacy et al. 2013b, Sierra Forest Legacy et al. 2013c), comments on two need for change documents (Sierra Forest Legacy et al. 2014a, Sierra Forest Legacy et al. 2014b) and comments on detailed desired conditions (Sierra Forest Legacy et al. 2014c). We incorporate these comments by reference and attach the letters to these scoping comments. We have included these letters in our scoping comments because significant issues that we raised in these comments have not yet been addressed in the NOI, or the detailed PA creates significant conflict with resource areas on which we commented. Organization of Comments The following comments address first the content of the NOI, including the purpose and need for action, issues not addressed in the scoping notice, and regulatory compliance of the PA as written.

  • Terr–14 Mule Deer
    TERR–14 MULE DEER 1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In 2001 and 2002, the literature review, a camera feasibility study, the Mammoth Pool migration study (observation study, boat survey, and remote camera study), and a hunter access study were completed. A map of known mule deer summer and winter ranges, migration corridors, and holding areas was created based on the literature review. The camera feasibility study was conducted in the fall of 2001 to test the remote camera system for the spring 2002 remote camera study. The cameras were successful at capturing photographs of 82 animals, including photographs of six deer, during this testing period. The Mammoth Pool migration study consisted of an observation study, boat survey, and remote camera study. The study focused on documenting key migration routes across the reservoir and relative use, identifying potential migration barriers, and documenting any deer mortality in the reservoir. The observation study consisted of two observers positioned with binoculars at two observation points on Mammoth Pool at dusk and dawn in order to observe migrating deer. There were no observations of deer using the dam road. Two observations of deer were made out of a total of 51 observation periods. One observation consisted of a single deer that swam from the Windy Point Boat Launch area to the Mammoth Pool Boat Launch area. The other observation was of one group of five adult deer approaching the reservoir near the observation point by the Mammoth Pool Boat Launch, but turning back up the hill. There was no sign of difficulty in the deer swimming or exiting the reservoir and no obvious disturbance to the deer that turned back.

C. March 1954 INTRODUCTION Ecological studies of the genus Ribes have been in progress in northern California for more than 20 years. A thorough under- standing of the ecology of native ribes in general, and of the Sierra Nevada gooseberry (Ribes roezli Regel) in particular, is necessary in connection with the control of the white pine blister rust in California. This disease of five-needled pines, caused by the fungus Cronartium ribicola Fischer growing on ribes as its alternate host, threatens to destroy sugar pine (Pinus lamberliana Dougi.) on about a million and a half acres of forest land that supports sufficient sugar pine to make rust control economical. Some of the conclusions from these studies are based on extensive field observations. For the most part, however, they are related directly to analyses of field data collected from several series of plots in California from 1936 to 1949.

These first four trails are on the right hand side: Coyote Lake: 16 miles RT* (from Hwy 168, and 10 miles RT from the beginning of the 4WD road). The jeep road to Coyote Lake is well traveled but an extremely rugged jeep road. The setting is alpine, glacial, partly timbered in shallow rolling forest. Red Lake: 13 miles RT (from Hwy 168, and 8 miles RT from beginning of the 4WD road). This is a small lake, open and sparsely timbered with a rocky and meadow type shoreline. You can drive by the way of the Red Mountain Off-Highway Vehicle Route. You can also reach West and Strawberry Lakes from this trail. Indian Pools: 2 miles RT. The trail starts from the China Peak Ski Resort, heading east along Big Creek. This is the only hike in the area that is considered easy since the trail is basically flat. Rancheria Falls: 2 miles RT. The trailhead is approximately 1.2 miles up the Rancheria Falls road. The trail is of a gentle grade and is 1 mile in length. Elevations range from 7,760 fee at the trailhead to 8,120 feet at the end of the trail near the base of the Falls. HUNTINGTON LAKE DAM AREA On the west end of the lake.

  • Rec 16 Emergency Services Evaluation
    REC 16 EMERGENCY SERVICES EVALUATION 1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The emergency services evaluation study identifies and characterizes available emergency services and those emergency service providers that respond to emergencies in the Big Creek Basin. Emergency service responders were consulted and asked to provide detailed information regarding their capabilities and service areas. The capabilities of the emergency response providers within the Big Creek Basin are summarized in terms of manpower, equipment and response times. This report also summarizes available historical emergency response data within the Big Creek Basin, based on service area data provided by the response agencies and emergency service providers. While efforts were made to obtain five years of historical emergency response data from each service provider, data for many providers were not available. The study results discuss data from the Sierra National Forest, California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection, and Emergency Medical Service (EMS) responders in Fresno and Madera counties. Data was not available from the law enforcement agencies. Historical emergency responses were first evaluated by reviewing the service area response data to determine which responses were located within the Big Creek Basin. The results of this evaluation indicate that of the total responses in the service area, the actual percentage of responses attributable to incidents in the Big Creek Basin are 3% for the Forest Service, 22% for the California Department of Forestry–Fresno County, 2% for the California Department of Forestry-Madera County, and 7% for EMS providers in Fresno and Madera Counties combined. Response data was further evaluated by sorting the available responses by service provider and response type into seven geographical regions in the Big Creek Basin as follows: (1) Shaver Lake and nearby communities; (2) Huntington Lake and nearby communities; (3) community of Big Creek; (4) Balsam Meadow Forebay; (5) Florence Lake; (6) High Sierra Area along Kaiser Pass Road including Lake Thomas A.

  • Terr–3 Special-Status Plant Populations
    TERR–3 SPECIAL-STATUS PLANT POPULATIONS 1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY During 2001 and 2002, the review of existing information, agency consultation, vegetation community mapping, and focused special-status plant surveys were completed. Based on California Native Plant Society’s (CNPS) Electronic Inventory of Rare and Endangered Vascular Plants of California (CNPS 2001a), CDFG’s Natural Diversity Database (CNDDB; CDFG 2003), USDA-FS Regional Forester’s List of Sensitive Plant and Animal Species for Region 5 (USDA-FS 1998), U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Species List (USFWS 2003), and Sierra National Forest (SNF) Sensitive Plant List (Clines 2002), there were 100 special-status plant species initially identified as potentially occurring within the Study Area. Known occurrences of these species were mapped. Vegetation communities were evaluated to locate areas that could potentially support special-status plant species. Each community was determined to have the potential to support at least one special-status plant species. During the spring and summer of 2002, special-status plant surveys were conducted. For each special-status plant species or population identified, a CNDDB form was completed, and photographs were taken. The locations were mapped and incorporated into a confidential GIS database. Vascular plant species observed during surveys were recorded. No state or federally listed special-status plant species were identified during special- status plant surveys. Seven special-status plant species, totaling 60 populations, were identified during surveys. There were 22 populations of Mono Hot Springs evening-primrose (Camissonia sierrae ssp. alticola) identified. Two populations are located near Mammoth Pool, one at Bear Forebay, and the rest are in the Florence Lake area.
