As agreed with your office, we gathered information on areas managed by two agencies: the Department of the Interior’s Bureau of Land Management (BLN) and the Department of Agriculture’s Forest Service. Specifically, this report provides information on (1) legislative guidance and the agency policies governing wilderness study area management, (2) the various activities and uses occurring in the agencies’ study areas, (3) the ways these activities and uses affect the areas, and (4) agency actions to monitor and restrict these uses and to repair damage resulting from them. Appendixes I and II provide data on the number, acreage, and locations of wilderness study areas managed by BLM and the Forest Service, as well as data on the types of uses occurring in the areas.

  • Alignment of the Idaho State Petition Themes
    ALIGNMENT OF THE IDAHO STATE PETITION THEMES Some refinements of the Petition for State Specific Rulemaking for Roadless Areas in Idaho, from Governor James E Risch, have been made based on public comment stating that some of the information in the Petition did not reflect the theme allocations on the State maps and information used for the development of the Draft EIS. The following paper summarizes the major refinements made in the State Petition. Changes - All Roadless Areas ROADLESS AREA BOUNDARIES The most current inventory from each National Forest was utilized. New inventories, used during the revision process, were available for the Caribou, Clearwater, Nez Perce, and Sawtooth National Forests. The State did not use these inventories for the development of the Petition. ROADLESS AREA ACRES The total roadless area acreage and theme acreage was rounded to the nearest 100. SPECIAL AREAS The Petition stated the management direction would not apply to special areas identified in Forest Plans, including areas such as Research Natural Areas, Wild and Scenic Rivers, etc. These special areas have been removed from all themes (see below). Forest Plan direction would apply to these areas. Specific Changes by Forest and Roadless Area BOISE Needles: Primary change is the number of acres placed into Wild Land Recreation, Primitive and Backcountry/Restoration themes – see table below. There was no change in the State Petition map; the number of acres associated with each theme in the Petition table was in error. 1 Needles – Comparison of the Petition and the Update Wild Land Primitive Backcountry/ General Existing Recreation Forest Special Areas Restoration Petition 4,041 1,925 22,865 56 0 Updated 3,300 5,800 19,500 100 1,200 CARIBOU All acres changed to match Forest Plan prescription acres and boundaries, and removal of special areas.

As nearly 1,900 mountain lakes had already been catalogued, it was known that many were ready to provide new fishing waters for fishermen. :~ ~, '.:~.,'"Ii Since 1947 hundreds of mountain lakes have been stocked with trout. Some have received fish to replenish an existing }~! population while many others were stocked for the first time . ... J Where practical, lakes are checked periodically by fishery managers and scheduled for planting according to need and suitability. In most cases, high mountain lakes are stocked with ~':., 1ft,! fry - a few annually, others every two or three years, or so. '~...

  • Roadless Area Conservation; National Forest Systems Land in Idaho BEIS
    Roadless Area Conservation; National Forest System Lands in Idaho DEIS Appendix A APPENDIX A—COMPARISON OF THE IDAHO ROADLESS AREA BOUNDARIES WITH PAST INVENTORIED ROADLESS AREA BOUNDARIES INTRODUCTION A concerted effort has been made to use the best available inventoried roadless area boundaries for the analysis in this EIS. Since the 2001 Roadless Rule was released, forests have continued to refine roadless area boundaries as part of the forest plan revision process. Moreover, where forests have not completed their forest plan revision process there are differences in boundaries. The purpose of this appendix is to disclose differences between the Idaho Roadless Areas analyzed in this EIS and the inventoried roadless areas used in the 2001 Roadless Rule (part 1). Also, where there were differences between forest plan inventoried roadless areas and the Idaho Roadless Areas, those differences are disclosed (part 2). Not all national forests are on an equal footing in terms of having up-to-date inventoried roadless areas in a GIS format. For this reason, there are some roadless areas where past development has occurred and where roads exist. This is a factor in considering the quality of the roadless characteristics present. Some sources of differences in Idaho Roadless Area boundaries include: 1. Inventoried roadless area boundary lines may be misrepresented when newer information for roads or improvements are overlaid. For example, if roads have been identified using a global positioning system (GPS), this information is more accurate than a line drawn on a map. A boundary line should obviously follow a road and not go across it; therefore, there would be a need to adjust the boundary.
