Projects

Issuance of a new 20-year special use authorization (permit) to replace the existing permit which will allow for continued operation and management of Antlers Resort Marina. No changes will be made to currently authorized operations or facilities.

Road-related improvements, including road decommissioning and safe OHV recreation opportunities, in the Beegum Creek Watershed of the Shasta-Trinity National Forest.

The purpose of the Project is to increase the effectiveness of fuel breaks and fuel reduction projects across ownership boundaries, to improve forest health and function, and to improve ingress and egress for firefighters and the public.

To conduct a limited scale exploration and high bench sampling of existing remnant tailing piles on National Forest System lands under the General Mining Laws.

The goals of the project are to move Burnt Ranch toward becoming a fire resilient community and to promote & maintain late successional conditions within the Corral Late Successional Reserve. Activities will focus on the Wildland Urban Interface.

Issuance of a special use permit to authorize a private landowner to construct a new access road that would be 2,337 feet long by 30 feet wide on National Forest System lands. Road location is within the Backbone Inventoried Roadless Area.

The FS will work with the Watershed Center of Hayfork, CA to restore floodplain function, raise the groundwater table, increase streamflow, decrease water temperatures, and decrease erosion and sedimentation, ultimately improving wildlife habitat.

Thinning and fuels reduction to enhance and protect late successional habitat.

A mining operations proposal to sample for valuable mineral deposits on Homestake Consolidated Mine. Approximately 3,000 cubic yards of material are proposed to be excavated and processed onsite by a trommel wash plant system. Reclamation will occur.

Render inoperable unauthorized water diversion structures on East Weaver Creek.

This project proposes to reduce wildfire risk to the community of Hyampom and improve forest resiliency through forest thinning, reduction of hazardous fuels and prescribed fire to reestablish natural fire regimes.

The proposed action is to amend Pacific Wholesale Materials, Inc.'s current Communication Use Lease to allow them to expand their communications site on Ironside Mountain. This action also authorizes a new lease for a new 20-yr term.

Fuels reduction and prescribed fire across the landscape. For more information, visit: https://www.fs.usda.gov/r05/klamath/projects/66583

Issue new special use permit to Shasta County to replace expiring permits. There will be no changes to the authorized facilities or increases in the scope or intensity of authorized activities.

The Forest plans to improve, realign, and decommission project roads to establish a minimum and efficient transportation system and address safety, accessibility, and maintenance concerns.

Remove existing asphalt boat ramp & replace with a two-lane, concrete, v-grooved, low-water ramp with turn-arounds & sidewalk. Add parking area above high water mark of Trinity Lake. Replace existing restroom with new restroom. Widen access driveway.

Construction, use and maintenance of a new cellular site on an existing Forest Service radio tower located on the Mt. Shasta Ranger District compound. Use of existing equipment shelter, placement of new 150 gallon 30kW generator for backup power.

The proposed project is designed to reduce risk to rural communities from catastrophic wildfire by reducing hazardous fuels, increasing safety adjacent to critical egress/ingress routes, and improving the resiliency of forested ecosystems.

The Northwest Forest Plan Amendment provides an updated management framework that incorporates best available scientific information, considers public input, recommendations from the Federal Advisory Committee, tribes, and government partners.

Authorize the use and occupancy of National Forest System lands for PG&E's Antler 1101 1384 Phases 1, 1.2, 1.3 and 2 project to underground powerlines by issuing an amendment to PG&E's existing special use authorization SHF02262019 ("Master Permit").

Issuance of a 30-year special use authorization to PG&E for construction, operation & maintenance of a remote microgrid on Hogback Mountain to replace the existing source of service via the existing Pit No. 7 1101 electric distribution 12KV line.

The Forest plans to create a linear fuelbreak approximately 500 feet on either side of FS 17 Road to help protect the wildland-urban interface and establish safe routes for the public and firefighters in a wildfire situation.

Issue multiple permits authorizing domestic use of water system.

Bureau of Reclamation is proposing to increase height of Shasta Dam. Forest Service (FS) has jurisdiction over NFS lands w/in the NRA. Connected actions will require authorization by permit or other suitable instrument issued by the FS to the Bureau.

The Shasta-Trinity National is amending its process for authorizing outfitter and guide permits and will issue both temporary permits (authorizes use for less than one year) and priority permits (authorizes use for ten years).

Road-related watershed improvements, including road decommissioning, in the Soldier Creek Watershed on the Shasta-Trinity National Forest

Vegetation management project designed to respond to concerns expressed by stakeholders, the Trinity County Community Wildfire Protection Plan, and members of the general public regarding fire hazard/risk, high fuel loading and general forest health.

Up to 19-miles of motorized user created trails would be added to the system. These trails would be constructed and maintained to Forest Service standards.

Establish fuel management zones; thin trees; reduce fuels; restore meadows; develop new/expand existing campgrounds & parking; establish trailheads & trails; & repair riparian/habitat damage.

Re-introduce fire onto the landscape within the Trinity Alps Wilderness by implementing prescribed fire(s)

The purpose of the project is to enhance quality and quantity of accessible cold-water aquatic habitat and water temperature conditions, and decrease fine sediment loading through watershed restoration activities in the Trinity River watershed.

The Trinity Public Utilities District and the Western Area Power Administration (lead Federal agency) propose a right-of-way expansion and vegetation management project to reduce fire risk to the surrounding communities. STNF is a cooperating agency.
