This page includes information about National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) planning for forest management projects across the Fishlake National Forest.
Note: Not all projects may appear on the map. See the list below for a more complete list.
The Forest Service follows NEPA regulations issued by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Under this rule, Forest Service officials determine which proposed projects are shared for public input.
The agency no longer issues a schedule of proposed actions (SOPA) report. Below is the current list of proposed projects available for review—your opportunity to learn more, share feedback, and stay engaged in decisions that shape the future of our public lands.
The Fremont River RD proposes vegetation treatments to protect aquatic watersheds and soil productivity; increase resiliency to insects, disease, and uncharacteristic fire; and improve vegetative conditions for wildlife habitat by using an improvement cut to reduce large conifers in the stand.
The Fremont River Ranger District is proposing actions to restore riparian areas and aquatic habitat through in-stream habitat structures, installing fencing, planting riparian wood species, and replacing or installing stream crossing structures to improve aquatic organism passage.
The Fremont River Ranger District is proposing to bring tree densities, forest structure, and species composition closer to desired conditions through prescribed fire with some hand/mechanical cutting to facilitate burns and improve habitats.
The Fremont River Ranger District is proposing to relocate a planned equestrian trailhead to a more suitable location to avoid user conflict and address safety concerns identified and upgrade a temporary structure to a permanent buidling for a visitor center.
The Beaver Ranger District is analyzing the potential effects of authorizing an extension to a mineral exploration project. The proponent is requesting to extend a trail to two new mining claims which they will explore at six new drill pads.
The Fremont River Ranger District plans to implement a commercial thinning project on Boulder Mountain, targeting approximately 200 acres of ponderosa pine. Project Documents: https://usfs-public.box.com/s/uhj8q4mamughf3mrtduytd
The Fremont River Ranger District is proposing to install one well each on the Seven Mile and UM Allotments and up to two wells on the Tidwell Allotment to increase the reliability and availability of water for livestock and wildlife.
