Harlan Creek Road Decommissioning
The proposed action is to gate and close about 1.3 miles of road to public motorized access and to decommission and remove approximately 9.9 miles of road from the Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie Forest Transportation System within the Harlan and Johnson Creek drainages (portions of the 6522 and 6525 road systems). The Forest Service is combining the scoping period with the notice and comment into one public involvement effort for the project. Preliminary analysis by Forest Service specialists indicates this project would have minimal affects on physical, biological and human environment resources within or adjacent to the project analysis area. Comments on the Harlan Creek Road Decommissioning Project will be accepted for 30 days following publication the project legal notice for comment in the Everett Herald.
