Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest in Washington State extends more than 149 miles along the western slopes of the Cascade Mountains for the Canadian border to the northern boundary of Mt. Rainier National Park. The Forest covers portions of Whatcom, Skagit, Snohomish, King and Pierce Counties. Together with other central Puget Sound counties, 62% (4 million people) of the State’s population lives within a 70 mile drive of the Forest. Another 1.5 million people in the Vancouver, British Columbia metro area are also within easy reach of the northern part of the Forest. A large local population, coupled with relatively ease of road access, makes the Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie a top tier National Forest for visitation. The Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest contains many scenic and historic points of interest. Mountain tops gradually rise from 5,000 to 6,000 feet on the south end of the forest to 7,000 to 8,000 feet in the north. Two tall volcanoes, Mt. Baker and Glacier Peak, tower thousands of feet above the adjacent ridges. The Forest is home to more glaciers and snow fields than any other National Forest in the lower 48. The Forest is also rich in lakes, with about 800, mostly in alpine areas. Baker Lake, a 10-mile long reservoir near Mt. Baker, produces hydro power for local electric utilities and provides exceptional recreation opportunities. The area approaching the Cascade Crest is exceptionally rugged and scenic. In 1968 part of the Forest was transferred to the National

    National Park Service North Cascades National Park Service Complex U.S. Department of the Interior Stephen Mather Wilderness An Enduring Legacy of Wilderness “[I]t is hereby declared to be the policy of the Congress to secure for the American people of present and future generations the benefits of an enduring resource of wilderness.” — Wilderness Act, 1964 The North Cascades National Park Complex includes 684,000 acres in three units: North Cascades National Park, Lake Chelan National Recre- ation Area, and Ross Lake National Recreation Area. Congress has designated 94% of the Complex as the Stephen Mather Wilderness. Today, as in the past, wilderness is an important part of every American’s story. People seek out wilderness for a variety of reasons: physical or mental challenge; solitude, renewal, or a respite from modern life; or as a place to find inspiration and to explore our heritage. What draws you to visit wilderness? The Stephen Mather Wilderness is at the heart of over two million acres of some of the wildest lands remaining, a place “where the earth and its community of life are untrammeled by man….” Untrammeled (meaning“free of restraint,” “unconfined”) captures the essence of wilderness: a place where the natural processes of the land prevail, and the developments of modern technological society are substantially unnoticeable. Here, we are visitors, but we also come home—to our natural heritage. It is a place to experience our past, and a place to find future respite. This is the enduring legacy of wilderness.

  • Baker River Hydroelectric Project Relicensing Comprehensive Settlement Agreement, Signed in November 2004 (Agreement)
    2 Based on the information provided in the Final Environmental Impact Statement, other documents, and conversations with staff from Puget Sound Energy, ACOE, and the U.S. Forest Service (USFS), we have concluded that effects to the federally-listed grizzly bear and gray wolf associated with the proposed relicensing of the Baker Project would be insignificant and discountable. Therefore, we concur with your “may affect, not likely to adversely affect” determination for grizzly bear and gray wolf. The FWS disagrees that “may affect, likely to adversely affect” is the appropriate effect determination for bull trout critical habitat. Virtually no areas below the Baker Dams are designated bull trout critical habitat, and therefore we believe that the appropriate determination is “no effect.” The FWS does not concur with the “may affect, not likely to adversely affect” determination for bald eagle, marbled murrelet, marbled murrelet critical habitat, northern spotted owl, and northern spotted owl critical habitat because of the potential for increased disturbance due to construction activities and increased visitor use, the potential to remove critical habitat and/or the potential to increase predation of marbled murrelet nests by corvids. We concur with the “may affect, likely to adversely affect” determination for bull trout. We therefore have conducted a formal consultation on the bald eagle, bull trout, marbled murrelet, marbled murrelet critical habitat, northern spotted owl, and northern spotted owl critical habitat. This consultation is complex, involving two Federal action agencies, the analysis of over 50 license articles proposed in the Baker River Hydroelectric Project Settlement Agreement and covering the effects of a license for operation for up to 50 years.

The Archaeological Resources Protection Act of 1979 (ARPA) The ARPA prohibits disturbance or removal of archaeological resources from federal lands without a permit from the responsible land manager. ARPA applies to both NRHP-eligible and non-eligible sites that are at least 100 years old. National Forest Management Act of 1976 (NFMA) The NFMA directs the Forest Service to develop renewable resource plans through an interdisciplinary process with public involvement and consultation with other interested governmental departments and agencies. The National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) NEPA provides for consideration of environmental impacts of federal projects and for public involvement in decision-making. Section 101(b)(4) of the statute declares that one objective of the environmental policy is to “preserve important historic, cultural, and natural aspects of our national heritage.” Accordingly, NHPA Section 106 studies can be coordinated with the NEPA process.
