INTRODUCTION The purpose of this biological assessment/evaluation (BA/BE) is to review the proposed Forest Service actions which are listed in Section IV, in sufficient detail to determine if the proposed actions may affect any of the threatened, endangered, proposed, or Forest Service sensitive species, or threatened or endangered species' designated critical habitat. This BA/BE is prepared in accordance with legal requirements set forth under Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act (16 U.S.C. 1536 (c)), and follows the standards established in Forest Service Manual direction (FSM 2672.42). This BA/BE incorporates the Forest-wide Reference Biological Assessment/Evaluation Document. The Reference Document contains current management direction, species life history and habitat requirements information (on which effects of proposed projects are evaluated), and literature cited. The Reference Document is updated periodically as species status or other information changes. The date of the version used will be recorded on the attached tier form for each specific project. This BA/BE can be used to document effects to TES wildlife, fish and botany species. It is not required that all resources use this for a project. When effects are greater to one TEP species than what is described, or, if more description is necessary to document the “no effect” determination, a stand-alone BA/BE can be used for that species. This BA/BE can still serve as the documentation for the remaining species, including minor impacts to FSS species. LIST OF SPECIES CONSIDERED The USFWS provides a species list through a new national website “IPaC” or “Information for Planning and Conversation” (ecos.fws.gov/ipac/). This process is under development and may not contain the most accurate list, therefore, the list of ESA listed species will be confirmed during the Level 1 process (Streamlining MOU, 2013). The following endangered, threatened, proposed, and Forest Service Sensitive species are addressed in this document. These species are known to or are suspected to occur on Six Rivers National Forest (SRNF), including the Ukonom Ranger District (which is administered by the SRNF), or are species that may be affected by actions occurring on SRNF (i.e. downstream effects to anadromous salmonid populations). Those species that are suspected or known to occur on both the SRNF and Ukonom Ranger District are notated with a double asterisk. Endangered Gray wolf (Canis lupus) (Ukonom District only) McDonald's rock-cress (Arabis macdonaldiana Eastwood) Threatened Northern spotted owl (Strix occidentalis caurina) ** Marbled murrelet (Brachyramphus marmoratus) ** Western yellow-billed cuckoo (Coccyzus americanus occidentalis) Coho salmon (Southern Oregon/Northern California Coasts ESU) (Oncorhynchus kisutch) ** Chinook salmon (California Coastal ESU) (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) Steelhead (Northern California DPS) (Oncorhynchus mykiss) 1 Forest-Wide Projects Having No Effect (Ver. 5/15) Critical Habitat Northern spotted owl** Marbled murrelet** Coho salmon – Southern Oregon/Northern California ESU** Chinook salmon – California Coastal ESU Steelhead – Northern California DPS Western yellow-billed cuckoo (Proposed) Proposed Fisher (Pekania pennanti) West Coast Distinct Population Segment (DPS) ** Essential Fish Habitat Coho salmon** Chinook salmon** Forest Service Sensitive Species Updated as of July 3, 2013 Wildlife Species Bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) ** Northern goshawk (Accipiter gentilis) ** Willow Flycatcher (Empidonax trailii) – (Ukomon RD only) California wolverine (Gulo gulo luteus)** Pacific marten (Martes caurina) ** Townsend's big-eared bat (Corynorhinus townsendii) ** Fringed myotis (Myotis thysanodes) ** Pallid bat (Antrozous pallidus) ** Mardon skipper (Polites mardon mardon) Western bumblebee (Bombus occidentalis) ** Aquatic Species Western pond turtle (Clemmys marmorata) ** Southern torrent salamander (Rhyacotriton variegatus) ** Northern red-legged frog (Rana aurora aurora) Foothill yellow-legged frog (Rana boylii) ** Cascade frog (Rana cascadae) (Ukonom RD only) Steelhead (Klamath Mountains Province DPS) (Oncorhynchus mykiss) ** Chinook salmon (Upper Klamath and Trinity Rivers ESU) (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) ** Chinook salmon (Southern Oregon/California Coasts ESU) (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) Coastal cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus clarkii) Pacific lamprey (Entosphenus tridentatus) ** Western brook lamprey (Lampetra richardsoni) California Floater (Anodonta californiensis) Chace Juga (Juga chacei) Pristine springsnail (Pristinicola hemphilli) 2 Forest-Wide Projects Having No Effect (Ver. 5/15) Forest Service Sensitive Plant and Fungi Species Vascular Plants Anisocarpus scabridus (scabrid alpine tarplant) Bensoniella oregana (Oregon bensoniella) Boechera koehleri (Koehler’s rock-cress) Calycadenia micrantha (small-flowered calycadenia) Cypripedium fasciculatum (clustered lady’s slipper)** Cypripedium montanum (mountain lady’s slipper)** Draba carnosula (Mt.

CONSULTATION TO DATE In 1996 the Guidelines for Streamlining Consultation were developed and interagency Level 1 Consultation Teams were formed. These guidelines were re-issued in 2013 for Region 5. Informal consultation, both pre- and post- Level 1 Team formation, occurred at various times since 1993 between U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) and USFS biologists on the list of projects considered in this document. The Level 1 team agreed that the projects listed in Section IV will not affect listed species or designated critical habitat and will not require consultation with the USFWS. The list was reviewed on 2012 and the determination verified. In 1995 and 1996 the Six Rivers National Forest conducted the Marbled Murrelet (MAMU) Range and Distribution Study area (RDS). The RDS involved surveying Zone 2 on the Six Rivers and parts of the Klamath National Forest (south of the Klamath River). In 1998 and 1999 the second phase of the project, which surveyed the remaining areas of Zone 2 (excluding portions of the Happy Camp District), was completed. No MAMU were detected. The finding of the Range and Distribution Study is that this portion of the Forest (Zone 2) is outside of the range of the MAMU. The US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) agreed with this conclusion (Technical Assistance letters #1-14-97- TA-9 and #1-14-1997-61.2). The ESA requires

  • Statement of Gregory Smith Acting Deputy Chief of Staff
    STATEMENT OF GREGORY SMITH ACTING DEPUTY CHIEF OF STAFF UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE BEFORE THE UNITED STATES HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES COMMITTEE ON NATURAL RESOURCES SUBCOMMITTEE ON NATIONAL PARKS, FORESTS AND PUBLIC LANDS DECEMBER 2, 2011 CONCERNING H.R. 1038, to Authorize the Conveyance of Two Small Parcels of land within the boundaries of the Coconino National Forest containing private improvements that were developed based upon the reliance of the landowners in an erroneous survey conducted in May 1960 Mr. Chairman Bishop and members of the Subcommittee, thank you for the opportunity to appear before you today to provide the Department of Agriculture’s view on H.R. 1038, a bill designed to correct an erroneous, private survey on the Coconino National Forest in Arizona. I am Gregory Smith, Acting Deputy Chief of Staff of the United States Forest Service. The Department supports this bill. In 1960-61, privately contracted surveyors surveyed two sections of land in what is now known as the Mountainaire Subdivision, which largely abuts the Coconino National Forest. Both surveys were found to be inaccurate when the Bureau of Land Management conducted a survey in 2007. The BLM survey correctly re-established the boundary of the National Forest System lands. Because of the erroneous private surveys, approximately 19 parcels totaling 2.67 acres of National Forest System land now have structures built on them. Although the Forest Service has authority under the Small Tracts Act (Public Law 97-465) to sell this land to the homeowners, H.R. 1038 would more quickly and efficiently resolve the issue with all property owners at the same time.
