LAND AND RESOURCE MANAGEMENT PLAN for the OLYMPIC NATIONAL FOREST PACIFIC NORTHWEST REGION PREFACE Preparation of a Land and Resource Management Plan (Forest Plan) for the Olympic National Forest is required by the Forest and Rangeland Renewable Resources Planning Act (RPA) as amended by the National Forest Management Act (NFMA). Regulations developed under the RPA establish a process for developing, adopting, and revising land and resource Plans for the National Forest System (36 CFR 219). The Plan has also been developed in accordance with regulations (40 CFR 1500) for implementing the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA). Because this Plan is considered a major Federal action significantly affecting the quality of the human environment, a detailed statement (environmental impact statement) has been prepared as required by NEPA. The Forest Plan represents the implementation of the Preferred Alternative as identified in the Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) for the Forest Plan. If any particular provision of this Forest Plan, or application of the action to any person or circumstances is found to be invalid, the remainder of this Forest Plan and the application of that provision to other persons or circumstances shall not be affected. Information concerning this plan can be obtained

Skokomish Wilderness. Between moss- and fern-laden banks, the Dosewallips and Hamma Hamma Rivers run cold and clear north and south, respectively, of the borders of The Brothers Wilderness. At 6,866 feet, The Brothers is the highest peak in the area, with a distinct double summit that ranks among the most popular climbs in the Olympics. Through the center of the Wilderness the Duckabush River splashes down a wide and lovely glacier-carved valley shadowed by tall hemlock, fir, and cedar. From the Duckabush the terrain rises steeply into a mazelike network of forested ridges that peak on The Brothers to the south and 5,701-foot Mount Jupiter to the north. In the rain shadow of the Olympic Mountains, the area collects about 80 inches of precipitation each year, and temperatures stay temperate, rarely rising above 80 degrees Fahrenheit and seldom freezing along the river.

  • Iron Horse State Park Trail – Renaming Effort/Trail Update – Report
    Don Hoch Direc tor STATE O F WASHINGTON WASHINGTON STATE PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSI ON 1111 Israel Ro ad S.W. P.O . Box 42650 Olympia, WA 98504-2650 (360) 902-8500 TDD Telecommunications De vice for the De af: 800-833 -6388 www.parks.s tate.wa.us March 22, 2018 Item E-5: Iron Horse State Park Trail – Renaming Effort/Trail Update – Report EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: This item reports to the Washington State Parks and Recreation Commission the current status of the process to rename the Iron Horse State Park Trail (which includes the John Wayne Pioneer Trail) and a verbal update on recent trail management activities. This item advances the Commission’s strategic goal: “Provide recreation, cultural, and interpretive opportunities people will want.” SIGNIFICANT BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Initial acquisition of Iron Horse State Park Trail by the State of Washington occurred in 1981. While supported by many, the sale of the former rail line was controversial for adjacent property owners, some of whom felt that the rail line should have reverted back to adjacent land owners. This concern, first expressed at initial purchase of the trail, continues to influence trail operation today. The trail is located south of, and runs roughly parallel to I-90 (see Appendix 1). The 285-mile linear property extends from North Bend, at its western terminus, to the Town of Tekoa, on the Washington-Idaho border to the east. The property consists of former railroad corridor, the width of which varies between 100 feet and 300 feet. The trail tread itself is typically 8 to 12 feet wide and has been developed on the rail bed, trestles, and tunnels of the old Chicago Milwaukee & St.

  • Mid-Hood Canal Juvenile Salmonid Evaluation Duckabush River 2019
    STATE OF WASHINGTON July 2020 Mid-Hood Canal Juvenile Salmonid Evaluation: Duckabush River 2019 Josh Weinheimer Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife Fish Program Science FPA 20-08 Mid-Hood Canal Juvenile Salmonid Evaluation: Duckabush River 2019 Josh Weinheimer Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife Fish Program, Science Division July 2020 Acknowledgements Measuring juvenile salmonid production from large systems like the Duckabush River involves a tremendous amount of work. In 2019, the Duckabush River juvenile trap was operated by dedicated scientific technician Eric Kummerow from the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW). Much of the data reported here relied on the conscientious efforts of WDFW technician Phil Aurdal, who operated the trap in previous years. Logistical support was provided by Wild Salmon Production Evaluation Unit biologist Pete Topping. Mo Small (WDFW) conducted genetic analysis of juvenile chum samples. Kris Ryding (WDFW) consulted on the study design and estimator variance for the genetic sampling protocol. A number of other individuals and agencies contributed to these projects. Diane Henry, the adjacent landowner, provided access to the trap site. Mark Downen, WDFW Region 6, provided adult spawner estimates. Between 2011 and 2019, the Duckabush juvenile trap project was funded by Washington State General Funds, the Salmon Recovery Funding Board (SRFB) and Long Live the Kings. We thank the Washington State Recreation and Conservation Office, in particular Keith Dublanica, for administering the SRFB grant and the SRFB Monitoring Panel for their feedback on Fish In / Fish Out monitoring.

  • Black Point/Pleasant Harbor
    THE PHYSICAL SETTING CHAPTER 2 CHAPTER 2 – THE PHYSICAL SETTING This section describes the physical setting in which the proposed action and alternatives will occur. 2.1 Location of the Proposal and Alternatives The site is located in southerly Jefferson County on the shores of Hood Canal and Pleasant Harbor, a naturally occurring bay. The area is encompassed in the Brinnon Subarea Planning Area of the County. 2.2 Brinnon Subarea Brinnon is an unincorporated community situated at the mouth of the Dosewallips River on both sides of US HWY 101, between the Olympic Mountains and Hood Canal. The Brinnon planning area is defined by the Forest Service’s Rainbow Campground at Mount Walker on the north and the Jefferson County line to the south, and includes all the land in between Hood Canal west to the Olympic National Park. Within the Brinnon planning area the majority of the lands are forest lands owned by the federal and state government and private timber companies. There are also small concentrations of retail and commercial services in Brinnon and at Black Point/Pleasant Harbor. With the exception of small lot subdivisions, the BSAP is characterized by low density residential development with a remote, rural character. Higher density residential lands tend to occur along or near the Hood Canal shoreline and portions of the Duckabush and Dosewallips Rivers. Current residential zoning is in the form of five-, ten-, and twenty-acre lots. At the time of adoption of the BSAP there was an anticipated 20-year demand for 280 residential lots to accommodate the projected population increase.
