Sierra National Forest
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.
Meadow restoration, reconnecting stream with meadow floodplain using bioengineering techniques to place instream structures built from natural materials harvested onsite
The project includes restoration and vegetation management to reduce risk of high-severity wildfires designed to help safeguard forest resources and nearby communities. Note: the 2025 Garnet Fire burned much of the proposed project area, and so the EA completion deadline moved to 10/01/2026.
Repair 21 short sections of washed out road. The largest section needing repair is l40 ft wide, 150 ft long, and in some sections 40 ft high. Address and repair the 20 other shorter sections also requiring attention.
This Project is designed to be an accelerated post-fire management response within those high and moderate burn severity footprints that includes hazard abatement, fuels and biomass removal, and restoration.
Fuel reduction, forest restoration, increase forest resilience and resistance to drought and inserts, and reduce likelihood of uncharacteristic severe wildfire.
help the project area to be more resilient to future drought, restore and preserve wildlife habitat to persist and to reduce the likelihood of uncharacteristic wildfire with all the associated damage that causes to resources
This proposal would allow or the construction, operation, and maintenance of buried fiber optic infrastructure along Highway 140 within Mariposa County.
Fuels reduction to reduce threat to Nelder Grove giant sequoia grove and wildlife habitat by reducing fuel ladders and treating standing and down fuel loading to reduce potential loss in a subsequent fire.
Sierra National Forest (SNF) is proposing to construct a single vault toilet that will accompany an existing Off-Highway Vehicle (OHV) Staging Area that serves the Red Mountain OHV trail system on the High Sierra Ranger District (HSRD).
Conduct a combination of activities to improve forest health in the project area. The proposed action would manage forest structure and density to increase resilience and reduce the risk of uncharacteristic stand-replacing wildfire and related adverse effects such as loss of wildlife habitat.
New construction of a livestock holding field pasture fence that connects to an existing drift fence. This holding field pasture would be ~1.72 acres and 0.22 miles in length and would enclose and connect to the exiting drift fence on the western bo
The Worman Road Fuels Reduction project includes proposed hand and mechanical vegetation management treatment of hazardous fuel loadings in a community wildfire protection zone near the forest boundary and Worman Road of Highway 49.
