Projects

The purpose of this project is to reduce hazardous fuels and improve forest health and resiliency and promote species diversity for approx. 3000 acres surrounding Wildland Urban Interface (WUI) of Cloudcroft, NM.

The Forest Service proposes to burn hand constructed slash piles surrounding Cloudcroft District Office and broadcast burn around Mayhill and Sacramento Administration sites. Cloudcroft burn is approx 33 acres. Mayhill and Sacramento is approx 53 ac

The forest will be developing a proposal to manage the nonnative invasive plants within the Lincoln National Forest's boundaries. Adaptive management would be incorporated into the analysis.

Our draft assessment under forest plan revision is now available for review. Information on the revision process is also available on our forest website: https://go.usa.gov/xUSMh

Windstream Communications, LLC/Uniti Group Inc. is requesting a special use authorization to install and maintain 2.2 miles of aerial fiber-optic line on existing powerline poles within the Smokey Bear Ranger District in Lincoln County, New Mexico.

Fire management, fuels management

Identify, fell, and dispose hazardous trees on National Forest System lands along roads, along trails, adjacent to facilities (e.g., campgrounds, trailheads, administrative sites, and range infrastructure), and along property boundaries.

Forest Service is proposing post-wildfire treatments within and near the South Fork and Blue 2 Fire burn scars to increase watershed resiliency, promote reforestation, reduce fuel loads, repair recreation sites, and protect human life and property.

Restore forest health on the approximately 140,000-acre planning area in the southern Sacramento Mountains. Project is designed to meet restoration objectives at a landscape-scale, primarily in mixed conifer and ponderosa pine forest.

The purpose of proposal is to thin approximately 30 acres of mistletoe infested timber.

The proposed action uses a combination of mechanical thinning and prescribed fire on approximately 3,206 acres of National Forest lands in order to reduce the threat of high intensity wildfires and promote healthy watersheds.
