DRAFT Wrangell Island Project Road Cards

Introduction 

The purpose of the road cards is to document site-specific resource concerns and mitigation measures 

regarding the road construction portion of the proposed project. The road cards are intended to serve 

as an implementation and monitoring tool, as described in the Forest Service Handbook (1909.15-2015-

1). 

Each road card represents a national forest system (NFS) road proposed for construction or 

reconditioning by the Wrangell Island Project based on the desired condition defined by the Forest Plan. 

The road cards are presented in numerical order and each includes a narrative page(s) and a map page, 

which are described in more detail below. 

Some adjustments to the road design can be expected during implementation to better meet sitespecific resource management and protection objectives. Adjustments and changes will be 

documented and analyzed in a change analysis prepared by an interdisciplinary team considering 

individual and cumulative effects to ensure that actual implementation remains within the scope of the 

original NEPA decision. The District Ranger will review and make a recommendation to the Responsible 

Official on whether the changes represent a substantial change, significant new circumstances, or new 

information relevant to environmental concerns. The Responsible Official will then determine 

necessary actions based on the Environmental Policy and Procedures Handbook (FSH 1909.15, Chapter 

10).

Note: Temporary roads do not have individual road cards since these roads are intended for short-term 

use and will be decommissioned at completion of the timber harvesting for which they were 

constructed. See Unit Cards for more information on temporary roads. 

Narrative Page

Each road card narrative page contains information used to describe site-specific road construction 

activities, variations by alternative if applicable, and resource concerns and mitigation measures. 

ROAD CARD HEADER 

Each road card has a header block with information used to generally describe the road’s number, 

length, location on the local road system, and land use designation. Each header block contains the 

following information: 

Route Number—A unique identifying number is given to every NFS road

Route Name—Some NFS roads have names

Local System—The local system for the Wrangell Island Project roads is the Wrangell Island system

Land Use Designation—From the Forest Plan, the land use designation (LUD) in which that road would 

be located 

Beginning Terminus—A reference point to describe the beginning point of the proposed road

Ending Terminus—A reference point to describe the endpoint of the proposed road

Beginning MP—The road milepost at the beginning terminus

Ending MP—The road milepost at the ending terminus

Segment Length—Length of the segment in miles
DRAFT

Wrangell Island Project DRAFT ROAD CARD INTRODUCTION  2 

Status—Description of the road’s status based on the proposed action (examples: Planned, New, 

Existing (indicating a road proposed for reconditioning)

Length (if different by alternative)—Allows for variations in the road design between alternatives 

GENERAL DESIGN CRITERIA AND ELEMENTS 

The design criteria for construction, operation, and maintenance of all roads will follow the “National 

Core” Best Management Practices, which provide specific direction regarding the implementation of this 

project’s proposed activities. A crosswalk to compare the “National Core” Best Management Practices 

with “Region 10” Best Management Practices is located in Table A, at the end of this introduction. 

Terms used in this section include: 

Functional Class—The grouping of roads by the character of service they provide. 

Level of Service—A description of the roads significant traffic characteristics and operating conditions. 

The level reflects a number of factors, such as speed, travel time, traffic interruptions, freedom to 

maneuver, safety, driver comfort, convenience, and operating cost. 

Level of Service “J”: Traffic flow is slow and may be blocked by management activities. Two-way traffic is 

difficult, backing may be required. Rough and irregular surface. Travel with low clearance vehicles is 

difficult. Single purpose facility. 

Primary Maintainer—The agency or party having primary (largest share) financial responsibility for 

maintenance. 

Service Life—The length of time that a facility is expected to provide specified service. 

“C”: Continuous or annual recurrent service 

“I”: A road which is closed to vehicle traffic between periods of use. The closed period must exceed one 

year. 

MAINTENANCE CRITERIA 

The Objective Maintenance Level is used to describe the existing condition for each road segment and to 

compare road management decisions between alternatives. While the Operational Maintenance Level 

seems to represents a more ‘current’ status for a particular segment of road, the actual condition of the 

road may be vary due to other programmatic road uses and routine maintenance that may occur at any 

time. The following definitions are summarized from Forest Service Handbook 7709.58, Sec12.3 - 

Transportation System Maintenance. 

1. Operational Maintenance Level is the maintenance level currently assigned to a road considering 

today’s needs, road condition, budget constraints, and environmental concerns. It defines the 

level to which the road is maintained. 

2. Objective Maintenance Level is the long-term maintenance plan for the roads considering future 

road management objectives, traffic needs, budget constraints, and environmental concerns. 

 Maintenance Level 1 - Closed to vehicular traffic, but may be open and suitable for nonmotorized uses. 

 Maintenance Level 2 - Open for use by high clearance vehicles. 

 Maintenance Level 3 - Open for standard passenger car. 

In reference to the Alaska Forest Resources and Practices Act, all roads will be maintained as Active

during timber harvest-related activities. One of the following maintenance classes will be implemented 

after timber harvest-related activities have been completed: 

 Active - A forest road actively used for hauling logs, pulpwood, chips, or other major 

forest products, or rock and other road-building materials.
DRAFT

Wrangell Island Project DRAFT ROAD CARD INTRODUCTION  3 

 Inactive - A forest road on which commercial hauling is discontinued for one or more 

logging seasons, and the forest landowner desires continuation of access for fire control, 

forest management activities, occasional or incidental use for forest products harvesting, 

or similar activities.

 Closed - A forest road is closed when the following activities have been completed: a 

road is outsloped or waterbarred, or is left in a condition suitable to control erosion. The 

ditches are also left in a condition suitable to control erosion, and bridges, culverts, and 

fills are removed from surface waters.

Storage Category “A” refers to roads that have minimal closure devices, typically have drivable 

waterbars, rolling dips, and existing drainage structures and bridges are retained. 

TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES ALLOWED USES 

36 CFR Parts 212, 251, 261, and 295 Travel Management; Designated Routes and Areas for Motor 

Vehicle Use; Final Rule, 

(a) General criteria for designation of National Forest System roads, National Forest System trails, and 

areas on National Forest System lands. In designating National Forest System roads, National Forest 

System trails, and areas on National Forest System lands for motor vehicle use, the responsible official 

shall consider effects on National Forest System natural and cultural resources, public safety, provision 

of recreational opportunities, access needs, conflicts among uses of National Forest System lands, the 

need for maintenance and administration of roads, trails, and areas that would arise if the uses under 

consideration are designated; and the availability of resources for that maintenance and administration. 

(b) Specific criteria for designation of trails and areas. In addition to the criteria in paragraph (a) of this 

section, in designating National Forest System trails and areas on National Forest System lands, the 

responsible official shall consider effects on the following, with the objective of minimizing: 

(1) Damage to soil, watershed, vegetation, and other forest resources; 

(2) Harassment of wildlife and significant disruption of wildlife habitats; 

(3) Conflicts between motor vehicle use and existing or proposed recreational uses of National Forest 

System lands or neighboring Federal lands; and 

(4) Conflicts among different classes of motor vehicle uses of National Forest 

System lands or neighboring Federal lands. 

Access Objectives 

Access and travel management decisions for these roads, including both opportunity and restrictions for 

motor vehicle use, are project-level decisions that are supported by public involvement and site-specific 

environmental analysis. Complete road and trail management objectives will be provided for those 

roads selected as part of the record of decision. 

The forest plan establishes transportation goals, objectives, desired future conditions, suitability of land 

for various uses, and provides guidelines for resource protection. The plan itself does not designate 

roads, trails, or areas for motor vehicle use or access. Rather, the plan provides the management 

context in which travel management decisions take place. Refer to 36 CFR Parts 212, 251, 261, and 295 

Travel Management; Designated Routes and Areas for Motor Vehicle Use; Final Rule. 

Access and Travel Management 
DRAFT

Wrangell Island Project DRAFT ROAD CARD INTRODUCTION  4 

The current access and travel management plan (ATMP) for Wrangell Island identifies a system of roads 

designated for motor vehicle use, which is displayed on a motor vehicle use map (MVUM) provided for 

public use at the ranger district office or agency website. The management plan’s four classes of vehicles 

include:

1. Closed: Designated for all use by other than motor vehicle. Roads designated as Closed are not 

displayed on the Motor Vehicle Use Map.

2. Mixed Use: Designated for use by full-sized highway-legal vehicles but also provides recreational 

access for other non-highway-legal vehicles. Roads designated as Mixed Use will be displayed on the 

Motor Vehicle Use Map.

3. Off-Highway Vehicle Use: Dual-Designated roads closed to motorized vehicular traffic but are 

managed as motorized trail open to motorized off-highway vehicles 50 inches or less in width. Roads 

designated as Off-Highway Vehicle Use are displayed on the Motor Vehicle Use Map. 

GENERAL DESIGN CRITERIA 

Blasting Restrictions 

During road construction, blasting operations will be designed to reduce the risk of mass failure on 

potentially unstable or saturated soils (BMP 14.6). Blasting and/or excavation under saturated soil 

conditions are restricted. 

Wetland Avoidance 

All newly constructed roads will avoid wetlands to the extent practicable. The practices described in 

BMP 12.5 will be applied to minimize impacts to wetlands where avoidance is not practicable. Prior to 

actual construction of roads and stream crossings, the final location, structure type, and design criteria 

will meet all applicable forest plan standards and guidelines, best management practices, and any 

applicable memorandums of agreement with the State of Alaska. 

Aquatics/Critical Stream Crossings 

National forest system roads, if not properly designed, can divert both surface and subsurface water 

from flow paths that otherwise would be taken in the absence of a road. The hydrologic and geomorphic 

consequences resulting from these three processes will vary based on the forest road. In some cases, 

impacts may be negligible, while they may be significant in others. 

Potential effects of forest roads that were not properly constructed or are not properly maintained on 

water quality include increased loading of sediment due to erosion and mass wasting; increased 

suspended solids and turbidity; increased sediment deposition and bed load; alteration of stream 

morphology and channel simplification; altered streamflow, pollution from other chemicals associated 

with forest roads; increased turbidity and sedimentation in drinking water systems; siltation of 

streambed substrates; impairments of spawning and rearing habitat; and degradation of habitat for 

salmonids, other fish, invertebrates, and other aquatic organisms. 

Cultural Resources 

Cultural resource-specific requirements are discussed in road card narratives as necessary. 

Invasive Species 

To prevent accidental spread of invasive plant materials, equipment cleaning requirements will follow 

National contract clauses, Regional Policy, and Forest Service Manual 2900-Invasive Species 

Management. 

Recreation 
DRAFT

Wrangell Island Project DRAFT ROAD CARD INTRODUCTION  5 

Recreation resource-specific requirements are discussed in road card narratives as necessary. 

Plants: Sensitive and Rare 

Forest Plan Standards and Guidelines for Plants directs that adverse impacts of management activities 

on sensitive and rare plant populations be avoided, minimized, or mitigated. When rare or sensitive 

plant species are identified in or near a proposed road corridor, a Forest Service botanist will assess the 

potential effects on sensitive/rare plants and if necessary recommend mitigations protect the 

population. Mitigation measures may include, but are not exclusive to, avoiding known sensitive/rare 

plant populations during project activities, and directional falling and yarding of trees in road corridors 

away from sensitive/rare plants. Where it is necessary to protect sensitive/rare plant species or 

communities from proposed road construction, a Monitoring and Evaluation Plan will be implemented, 

including a review of the implementation and effectiveness of conservation actions, and application of 

adaptive management principles. 

Scenery 

Scenery resource-specific requirements are discussed in road card narratives as necessary. 

Silviculture 

Silviculture resource-specific requirements are discussed in road card narratives as necessary. 

Soils 

Detailed soils resource-specific requirements are discussed in road card narratives as necessary. 

Wildlife 

Bald eagle nest protection requirements are now found in 50 CFR Part 22.26. Permits allowing “take” in 

accordance with the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act would have to be obtained if disturbance to 

nesting bald eagles would occur. The required distances to avoid disturbance to nesting eagles (March 1 

through August 31) are as follows: 

• Avoid clearcutting or removal of overstory trees within 330 feet (100 meters) of both active and 

alternate nests at any time (same as MOU). 

• Avoid timber harvesting operations, including road construction and chain saw and yarding 

operations, during the nesting season within 660 feet (200 meters) of the nest. 

• Avoid construction of log transfer facilities and in-water log storage areas within 330 feet (100 

meters) of active and alternate nests. 

• Avoid operating helicopters or fixed-wing aircraft within 1,000 feet (305 meters) of the nest during 

the breeding season, except where eagles have demonstrated tolerance for such activity. 

• Avoid blasting and other activities that produce extremely loud noises within 1/2 mile of nests (or 

within 1 mile in open areas).

Travel Management Narrative: During timber harvest, motor vehicle use will be discouraged due to safety 

considerations. All motor vehicle use will be accepted after timber harvest. 

ROAD LOCATION: Road is located on gentle to moderate side slopes with a maximum side slope of 55% for 

approximately 70 feet. To minimize stream crossings, this road began after the stream crossing control at station 

84+32 of road 50062. This resulted in the need to cross muskegs. 
Wrangell Island Project Proposed Road 50058 

DRAFT

Site Specific Design Criteria

WETLAND AVOIDANCE: Minimize footprint to the extent feasible, avoid side casting or other placement of waste 

in wetlands (BMP 12.5).

The road on NFS land is located almost entirely in wetlands adjacent to the south fork tributary of Pats Creek. 

INVASIVE SPECIES: Rock quarry at beginning of road on State land is infested with reed canary grass and possibly 

other invasive plants. Ensure road is constructed of material from weed free source (quarry near rec cabin is weed 

free). Prior to closing road eradicate introduced invasive plant species. 

SOILS: Fine texture glacial deposits with potential for failure on slopes as gentle as 45% are found in the valley 

below 1,000 ft elevation; the road is located on slopes steeper than 45% at following survey locations: 

MP 0.42 (100ft) side slopes 45-55% 

 0.5 (300 ft) 45-50% with 18% grade 

NFS boundary 

 0.79 (910 ft) cutslope 48-55% 

 1.13 (100 ft) 30-60% incised channels below road 

 1.6 (50 ft) 50% 

Equipment operating on these slopes should use caution and be prepared for slope failure. Site specific erosion 

control measures will be designed depending on substrate exposed during construction; rock walls or other 

structural features may be necessary to support cutbanks in this area (BMP 14.7). Include adequate cross drains to 

avoid concentrating water on slide prone terrain. (BMP 14.9); control erosion and disperse runoff away from 

streams (BMP 14.8).

Intended Purpose/Future Use: The intended purpose of this road is to provide access for timber management 

activities in Units 521, 550, 551, 552, 553 and provide for a landing for Unit 523. The beginning 1.4 miles will also 

provide a safer haul route for Units 516, 530, 555, 556, 557, 610. The road will be used for future timber 

management and administration and Segment 1 would become the main route to access the ridge top since it 

would be a safer and a more cost effective route to maintain.

ATM: This road is part of the minimum road system necessary for the management of NFS lands. 

Travel Management Narrative: During timber harvest, motor vehicle use will be discouraged due to safety 

considerations. All motor vehicle use on Segment 1 will be accepted after timber harvest. Segments 2-4 will be 

dual designated as a NFS Trail and motorized OHV, 50 inches or less in width, will be accepted following harvest 

activities. 

ROAD LOCATION: The initial 0.5 miles is on AK DNR lands and will require a right-of-way easement. The road is 

located on generally gentle to moderate side slopes, however full bench and end haul construction will be required 

in a couple of small sections. One Class II stream is crossed and a fish passage structure will be constructed. 

Multiple Class III streams are crossed requiring large culverts and small log stringer bridges.

Narrative: 

RECREATION: Open OHV, Rec, and subsistence.

SOILS: Road is located on fine textured glacial deposits with high potential for sediment generation and slope 

failure from MP 0.0 to the last class III stream crossing. Additionally, it has two segments with side slopes greater 

than 67% gradient for an estimated 0.12 miles, where it passes through the 1960 second growth stand. 

Side slopes adjacent to the incised class III streams will need immediate stabilization to prevent stream 

sedimentation; rock walls or other structural features may be necessary to support cutbanks in these areas (BMP 

14.7). Use full bench construction with end haul at first and fourth stream crossings. 

Pioneering equipment operating along this road should use caution and be prepared for slope failure. Site specific 

erosion control measures will be designed depending on substrate exposed during construction (BMP 14.7). Ensure 

adequate cross drains to avoid concentrating water on slide prone terrain. (BMP 14.9). 

Use full-bench and end-haul for approximately 650 feet on steep slopes with bedrock control through the second 

growth stand (BMP 14.7 & 14.12).

WETLAND AVOIDANCE: 

Approximately 0.68 miles of road is constructed on forested wetlands and an estimated 0.50 miles is constructed 

on forested wetlands/sphagnum peat muskeg complex. Minimize road footprint to the extent feasible (BMP 12.5).

Structure Passage Timing dates 

Narrative: 

SOILS: Road is located on steep slopes requiring specialized construction techniques in a number of places. 

MP 0.25-1.0 road is located on actively eroding hillslope immediately above tributary to McCormick creek; side 

slopes 30-55% gradient; a low gradient slump occurs at MP 0.6. Recommend oversized culverts to handle debris 

and minimize the risk of blockage and road wash outs. Colluvial surface material may overlie fine textured glacial 

deposits below 1000 ft elevation. 

MP 1.6 to 1.9 (in unit 564) the slopes approach or exceed 67%; the mapped stream is an active debris flow channel 

with 80% slope, east of it is a boulder-filled channel with water flowing under the boulders, west of it a small debris 

flow crosses the p-line and continues down slope (near. MP 1.7). Recommend full bench construction and end 

haul of overburden for the entire segment. A permanent embankment crossing of the channel will require an 

oversized culvert to accommodate debris moving down the channel. A permanent span bridge might be the most 

appropriate method of crossing the debris flow channel (MP1.8). The embankment will require a rock key and 

buttress on the downslope end to adequately support the fill on the 80% channel slope. A site-specific engineering 

design will be required for the keyed buttress and culvert. 

Construction of steep sections should be performed during the summer season (BMP 14.6). Blasting required for 

rock cuts should be controlled, and should be planned to avoid overloading downslope soils, causing slope failures. 

Control and appropriate disposal of surface runoff from the road surface will be a necessary part of the design and 

construction. A retaining structure such as rock buttress will be required for cuts that exceed 8 feet (BMP 14.7, 

14.8)

Site Specific Design Criteria

WETLAND AVOIDANCE: Road will be reconstructed in existing footprint; no additional fill in wetlands. 

The road is located in wetlands from approximately MP 0.3 to MP 1.13. Minimize road width to the extent 

possible; avoid side casting into wetlands, constructing pullout and turnarounds in uplands. Install adequate cross 

drains so as not to impede natural flows (BMP 12.5 and 14.3).

AQUATICS/CRITICAL STREAM CROSSINGS: listed below require BMP 14.6 and 14.17. All other stream crossings are 

Class IV. National Core BMP Road-7 applies to all road stream crossings. A site survey will be conducted to 

determine the size and type of structure. All fish stream crossings will meet fish passage standards.

Maintenance Narrative: The last 0.6 miles of existing road will require reconditioning. Work required may include: 

ditching, cleaning or replacing culverts, brushing, surface rock replacement, or subgrade repair. Between mileposts 

3.7 to 4.3, the existing road will be maintained as a maintenance level 1, or “inactive”, road following harvest 

activities. 

TRAFFIC MANGEMENT STRATEGIES ALLOWED USES 

Strategy Mode of Travel BMP EMP From Date Thru Date Remarks

Accept Motorized OHV <= 50” 3.7 4.3 1/1 12/31 Dual designated as NFS Trail

ATM: This road is part of the minimum road system necessary for the management of NFS lands. 

Travel Management Narrative: During timber harvest, motor vehicle use will be discouraged due to safety 

considerations. Road will be dual designated as a NFS Trail and motorized OHV, 50 inches or less in width, will be 

accepted following harvest activities. 

ROAD LOCATION: Drainage structures remain in place, minimal work is required to make safe for haul.

Site Specific Design Criteria

WETLAND AVOIDANCE: Road will be reconstructed in existing footprint; no additional fill in wetlands.

The road crosses high elevation (1,800 ft) scrub forest wetlands between MP 3.9 and 4.2; install adequate cross 

drains when reconditioning (BMP 14.3).

AQUATICS/CRITICAL STREAM CROSSINGS: listed below require BMP 14.6 and 14.17. All other stream crossings are 

Class IV. National Core BMP Road-7 applies to all road stream crossings. A site survey will be conducted to 

determine the size and type of structure. All fish stream crossings will meet fish passage standards. 

CRITICAL STREAM CROSSINGS: IN PROGRESS

Narrative: 

INVASIVE SPECIES: There are no known invasive plants on this road; prior to closing road eradicate any newly 

introduced infestations..

RECREATION: High hunting area. Open OHV access.
