  • Chapter 3 Affected Environment
    Chapter 3 – Affected Environment Chapter 3 Affected Environment In this Chapter: • Existing natural environment • Existing human environment • Protected resources This chapter describes the existing environment that may be affected by the alternatives. A brief regional description is given here to give the reader a better understanding of the information in this chapter. The project area is in the uppermost reaches of the Columbia River Basin, within the Snake River watershed. It is part of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, which is the largest remaining block of relatively undeveloped land in the contiguous United States. This ecosystem is centered around Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks and includes the national forests, wilderness areas, wildlife refuges, and other federal, state, tribal, and private lands that surround these parks. The landscape is scenic. Dominant features include mountain ranges over 3,660 m (12,000 feet) high, alpine valleys, rivers, broad flat plateaus, picturesque farmlands, and the special features of the national parks. The region is known for its variety of wildlife, unequaled elsewhere in the continental United States. Species present in large numbers include bighorn sheep, pronghorn antelope, moose, mule deer, elk, and black bear. Wolverines, grizzly bears, and reintroduced wolves are present as well. This region attracts over 5 million tourists and recreationists per year (Wyoming Department of Commerce, 1995). Visitors and local residents enjoy sightseeing, hiking, backcountry skiing, snowmobiling, camping, backpacking, horseback riding, mountain biking, snowboarding, parasailing, hunting and fishing. Because of the concentration of highly visible wildlife species in the region, wildlife-related recreation is a key element of the region’s economy and character.

  • MOU Between Wyoming Game and Fish Commission and the Forest
    FS Agreement No. 09-MU-11020000-038 MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING Between the Wyoming Game and Fish Commission And the Forest Service, USDA On FISH, WILDLIFE, AND HABITAT MANAGEMENT WITHIN NATIONAL FOREST WILDERNESS IN WYOMING May 7, 2010 MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING FOR FISH, WILDLIFE AND HABITAT MANAGEMENT WITHIN NATIONAL FOREST WILDERNESS IN WYOMING BETWEEN The Wyoming Game and Fish Commission And Forest Service, United States Department of Agriculture Rocky Mountain Region And Intermountain Region THIS MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING is hereby made and entered into by and between the Wyoming Game and Fish Commission (hereinafter “Wyoming Game and Fish), and the US Forest Service (hereinafter the “Forest Service”). A. BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE In June 2006, the Association of Fish and Wildlife Agencies (AFWA), the Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management (BLM) signed a revised agreement establishing policies and guidelines for cooperative management of fish and wildlife in Congressionally designated wilderness areas. (See ATTACHMENT A – “Policies and Guidelines for Fish and Wildlife Management in National Forest and Bureau of Land Management Wilderness”, amended 2006, hereinafter “AFWA Agreement”) The AFWA agreement recognizes the importance of coordination and communication between individual States and the Forest Service and encourages the agencies to establish State-specific agreements. In the spirit of this direction, this Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between Wyoming Game and Fish and the Forest Service’s Intermountain (R4) and Rocky Mountain (R2) Regions is developed. Though the agencies have different authorities and responsibilities, the fish, wildlife and habitat resources will benefit through a cooperative approach to management. The AFWA Agreement and this MOU are intended to serve as a framework for enhanced cooperation between the Wyoming Game and Fish Department and the Forest Service Regions 2 and 4 in the management of fish, wildlife and habitat on Forest Service-administered wilderness areas in Wyoming.
