Scoping Report

Smith River NRA Restoration and Motorized Travel Management

Scoping Period Summary

The Notice of Intent to prepare and Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) on the Smith River NRA 

Restoration and Motorized Travel Management Project was published in the Federal Register on April 

20, 2012. The scoping period was 45 days and ended on June 5, 2012. Prior the beginning of the scoping 

period, the scoping summary and proposed actions maps were mailed to 176 interested individuals and 

organizations along with a cover letter requesting the public to identify their issues and concerns with 

the project. Two public meetings, one at the Lighthouse Inn in Crescent City and the other at the 

Gasquet Mountain School in Gasquet, were held to inform the public about the project, clarify any 

specific questions the public had, solicit comments, and assist the public in understanding the 

information displayed on the proposed action maps or contained in the proposed action summary.

During the scoping period the Forest received 627 comments (81 unique letters and 537 form letters) 

from individuals, government offices, off-highway vehicle user groups, and environmental organizations. 

Captured below is a summary of the public’s issues with the proposed action, and how the project will 

respond to those comments through the environmental analysis process. Appendix A of this report lists 

the commenters. Appendix B of this report lists the route specific comments and the interdisciplinary 

team consideration and recommendation related to those comments. 

Scoping & the Identification of Significant Issues

Issues serve to highlight effects or unintended consequences that may occur from the proposed action 

and alternatives, giving opportunities during the analysis to reduce adverse effects and compare tradeoffs for the decision maker and public to understand. The Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) 

directs agencies to reduce excessive paperwork by discussing only briefly issues other than significant 

ones (40 CFR 1500.4(c)), and using the scoping process not only to identify significant environmental 

issues deserving of study, but also to deemphasize insignificant issues, narrowing the scope of the 

environmental impact statement process accordingly. (40 CFR 1500.4(g)) FSH 1907.15 Chapter 10, 

Section 12.41

For example 40 CFR 1501.7, which states that as part of the scoping process the lead agency shall

determine the scope..., and the significant issues to be analyzed in depth in the environmental impact 

statement. (40 CFR 1501.7(a)(2)) Identify and eliminate from detailed study the issues which are not 

significant or which have been covered by prior environmental review (1506.3), narrowing the 

discussion of these issues in the statement to a brief presentation of why they will not have a significant 

effect on the human environment or providing a reference to their coverage elsewhere. (40 CFR 

1501.7(a)(3)) The term significantly as defined by the CEQ in 40 CFR 1508.27 refers to both the context 

and intensity of a project. To paraphrase Context means that the significance of an action must be 
2

analyzed in several contexts such as society as a whole (human, national), the affected region, the 

affected interest, and the locality. Intensity refers to severity of an impact.

Significant issues are used to drive the development of alternatives and to modify the proposed action 

as to reduce the significance of the impact, and to direct the analysis of issues to be considered in the 

analysis. Agencies are directed to develop and consider alternatives that would reduce significant 

impacts. (36 CFR 220.5(e)) The EIS shall document the examination of reasonable alternatives to the 

proposed action. An alternative should meet the purpose and need and address one or more significant 

issues related to the proposed action. Since an alternative may be developed to address more than one 

significant issue, no specific number of alternatives is required or prescribed. (36 CFR 220.5(e))

Issues Identified & Significance Determination

IMPACTS TO RECREATION OPPORTUNITY

Issue: Closing Roads & Trails - The proposed action does not provide adequate access to 

dispersed recreation campsites and key destinations. The proposed closing roads and trails on 

the NFTS, and not adding or keeping more roads and trails will cause impacts to the motorized 

recreation opportunity, increase user conflict, decrease motorized access to the Forest, and 

impacts to social values associated with motorized recreation. Closing roads and trails will cause 

impacts to local cultural values, as historic mining sites will not be accessible by motorized 

vehicles. Many of the roads do not connect to the any other roads. The proposed action 

unnecessarily limits riding season by imposing wet weather restriction by dates rather than 

ground conditions.

o Determination & Consideration: This is a significant issue. Limiting the amount of 

motorized recreation opportunity, and access to key destinations and popular 

dispersed campsites on the forest may have a long-term effects that may be of 

regional importance. Motorized recreation opportunities within the project area are 

closely associated with the local history that is unique to the area. The effects of 

limiting motorized recreation opportunity and access to key dispersed recreation 

sites are highly controversial. There are also concerns about providing the adequate 

facilities for motorized recreation opportunity to occur legally (i.e., parking areas for 

off-highway vehicles to be off loaded and access motorized trails).

 The wet weather seasonal closure issue is not a significant issue. The Travel 

Management Rule requires that Motorized Visitor Use Maps (MVUM) specify 

the times of year for which use is designated (36 CFR 21.56). Wet weather 

seasonal closures will not be addressed as an alternative element.

o Treatment in EIS – This will be responded to through alternative development.

 Alternative Element: Add more or maintain current motorized recreation 

opportunities. Add dispersed recreation opportunities. Add parking areas that 

access the proposed motorized trail network.
3

Issue: Adding Roads & Trails - The proposed adding of roads and trails will affect non-motorized 

recreation experience and the social values associated with them. (Non-motorized recreation 

values outside of IRAs)

o Determination & Consideration: This is not a significant issue. The specific area 

identified with this issue outside of Inventoried Roadless areas are High Dome Trail, 

which is currently designated as a motorcycle only motorized trail. Changing the existing 

status of existing motorized trails is not within the scope of this analysis, as the Travel 

Analysis Process (TAP) analyzed unauthorized routes and existing roads, but did not 

evaluate existing trails.

o Treatment in EIS – Effects to non-motorized recreation opportunity will be analyzed in 

the EIS.

IMPACTS TO SPECIAL DESIGNATION AREAS

Issue - Inventoried Roadless Areas (IRA) The proposed addition of motorized trails to IRAs will 

affect the inventoried roadless characteristics of these areas including opportunities for 

solitude, undisturbed landscapes and primitive, non-motorized recreation. The agency’s 

proposal to add unauthorized routes as trails is not consistent with the Roadless Rule, the trails 

will more closely resemble roads and the Roadless Rule does not allow for new roads to be built 

in inventoried roadless areas.

o Determination & Consideration – This is a significant issue. Designating routes as 

motorized trails within IRA is highly controversial due to the potential long-term effects 

on the Roadless Character and non-motorized recreation opportunity.

o Treatment in EIS – This will be responded to through alternative development.

 Alternative Element - Do not add any motorized trails in Inventoried Roadless 

Areas.

Issue - Smith River National Recreation Area (SR NRA) - The proposed addition of unauthorized 

routes with a high-risk and low-need is not consistent with the SR NRA and threatens the values 

that the SR NRA was created to protect.

o Determination & Consideration – This is not a significant issue. The routes proposed for 

addition that are rated as high risk in the TAP were mitigated to a low or moderate risk 

level in order to be proposed for addition. Also, the updated TAP does not reflect the 

full gamut of public input received during the 2007 Environmental Assessment Process. 

The basis of the proposed action is the action defined in the April 2007 Decision Memo. 

The 2007 April Decision was the result of recommendations from the TAP that was then 

moved through a public involvement process which further identified routes that had an 

identified recreation need. The SR NRA values will be protected by mitigating high and 

moderate resource risks. The risk-need table will be updated to incorporate public 

comment from the 2007 EA public comment period.

o Treatment in EIS – The effects to the SR NRA will be analyzed in the recreation analysis 

of the EIS.
4

IMPACTS TO NATURAL RESOURCES

Issue: Botanical Resources - Impacts to TES & FSS plants will result from allowing motorized use 

on routes. The use of barriers to reduce impacts associated with motorized use on TES & FSS 

botanical species is ineffective. Impacts to TES & sensitive species will result from the proposed 

action due to the introduction and spread of noxious weeds.

o Determination & Consideration - This is a significant issue. The TE & FSS species found 

within the project area are of regional importance. There are no TE botanical species 

within 100 feet of the unuathorized routes proposed for addition to the NFTS as 

motorized trails. The botanical resources of concern are impacts to FSS plants and 

unique plant assemblages resulting from allowing motorized use on routes. Designating 

routes in this area is highly controversial due to the uncertainty about the potential 

impacts to FSS species and to unique serpentine plant assemblages in the foreseeable 

future.

o Treatment in EIS – This will be responded to through alternative development.

 Alternative Element – Unauthorized routes with FSS plants occurring on them 

would not be added the NFTS and would be barricaded to prevent motorized 

travel on them.

Issue: Port orford-Cedar – The POC resource threatened by allowing motorized use and/or 

ineffective mitigations. The use of gates to limit illegal off-road use and the spread of 

pythophthora lateralis, POC root rot disease, is not effective. The lack of mitigation measures to

slow the rate of spread of POC root rot disease in watersheds which are already infected is not 

consistent with Forest Plan and will not lead to the attainment of ACS objectives.

o Determination & Consideration - This is a significant issue. Port orford-Cedar is 

regionally important. The efficacy of mitigations on routes proposed for designation in 

drainages with uninfected stands of POC, and the absence of mitigation on proposed 

routes in drainages with infected stands of POC, is highly controversial due to the 

uncertainty of the long-term effects to POC. 

o Treatment in EIS – This will be responded to through alternative development.

 Alternative Element - A broader application of mitigations and additional 

mitigations to reduce the spread of POC.

Issue: Wildlife – Proposed routes are duplicative and cause habitat fragmentation.

o Determination & Consideration – This is not a significant issue. The route specific 

concern did (UAR) 405.103 does not occur within TES habitat for wildlife.

o Treatment in EIS – Effects to wildlife will be analyzed in the EIS.

Issue: Water Quality & Aquatic Species– Erosion on some of the routes proposed threatens 

meeting ACS Objectives in Key Watersheds.

o Determination & Consideration –This is not a significant issue. The project must be 

compliant with Aquatic Conservation Strategy objectives. Treatments are identified for 

roads or trails with erosional features to mitigate risks to water quality and aquatic 

species.
5

o Treatment in EIS – The proposed action and alternatives will be crafted to meet ACS 

objectives. The effects to water quality will be analyzed and displayed in the EIS in the 

Aquatic Biota and Water Resources sections.

IMPACTS TO CULTURAL RESOURCES

Issue: Traditional Cultural Properties (Helkau District & Mus yeh nait) - Maintaining existing 

system roads and the addition of roads and trails to the NFTS in the Helkau District would cause 

sensory and cumulative impacts to cultural and spiritual values. The proposed action may 

increase the risk of spread of POC in the Helkau District, which is culturally significant to tribes.

o Determination & Consideration – This is a significant issue. The values related 

associated with the Helkau District are important to Native American tribes in the 

surrounding region. The Helkau District is irreplaceable in its role of perpetuating 

spiritual values. The effects of designating routes in the Helkau District would be 

controversial and precedent setting, as it would likely cause cumulative effects on the 

cultural and spiritual values of regional tribes. Port orford-Cedar also occurs within the 

Helkau District; issues associated with the survival of Port orford-Cedar populations also 

affect cultural and spiritual values of regional tribes.

o Treatment in EIS - The project scope will be modified to exclude Traditional Cultural 

Properties, including the Helkau District and Mus-yeh-sait-neh, from the project area in 

order to protect sacred sites. Travel management in these areas will be handled under a 

separate environmental analysis. For these reasons, this issue is not within the scope of 

the project and will not be addressed in alternatives.

 Alternative Element – Will not be addressed in alternatives, but eliminated from 

geographic scope of project.

Issue: Subsistence Values - Closing roads and trails would cause impacts to subsistence values 

by limiting access to traditional gathering areas.

o Determination & Consideration – This is not a significant issue. This issue was originally 

recommended as a significant issue by the ID Team, however, further communication 

and clarification of the project with the Hmong Association identified that this is not an 

issue. After the scoping period was complete further communication with 

representatives of the Hmong Association of Del Norte County was initiated to identify 

concerns about specific roads and gathering areas. The main concern was that 

passenger car roads are would be closed, however, after reviewing the proposed action 

and maps in more detail, there was support for project because it maintains access on 

passenger car roads and proposes to restore and decommission some lower level 

unauthorized routes and roads. As this is no longer an issue for the commenting parties, 

this will not be addressed in the alternatives.

o Treatment in EIS – This will be analyzed in the EIS within the context of Environmental 

Justice. (Executive Order 12898)
6

ADEQUACY OF MONITORING PLAN

Issue: Adequacy of Monitoring Plans - The monitoring plans are inadequate to protect the 

sensitive resources. The monitoring plans are too short lived to ensure adequate management 

and protection of resources. They allow for too great a loss of resources before corrective 

measures are taken, and will not lead to the attainment of the ACS objectives. The monitoring 

plans need to identify standards, thresholds, and implementation measures so as to form a 

baseline for monitoring and triggers for corrective action. Corrective actions need to include 

short-term closures if the threshold is exceeded.

o Determination & Consideration – This is not a significant issue, but will be used to define 

the scope of the analysis and be addressed in the effects analysis. 

o Treatment in EIS - The monitoring plans that apply to the proposed action and all the 

alternatives considered in detail will be more fully developed in the EIS.

ECONOMICALLY FEASIBILITY

Issue: Economic Feasibility - The Proposed Action is economically infeasible to implement and 

puts valuable resources at risk. The protection of irreplaceable natural resources and human 

safety is dependent on the full implementation of the project as analyzed, including mitigations, 

monitoring, and enforcement. The proposed action is not economically viable given the current 

and projected federal budgets. The decision should be conditioned on adequate funding.

o Determination & Consideration – This is not a significant issue, but will be used to define 

the scope of the analysis and be addressed in the effects analysis. 

o Treatment in EIS - The cost of implementing the project, including mitigations and 

monitoring, will be analyzed in the EIS for the proposed action and all alternatives 

considered in detail, and weighed in the decision making process.

EFFECTS TO PRIVATE PROPERTY & SPECIAL USE PERMITEES

Issue: Access to Private Property - Many of the routes that will not be added to the NFTS access 

private property or are in use by Special Use Permitees. Not including these routes on the NFTS 

will restrict legal access to private property.

o Determination & Consideration – This is not a significant issue. The Forest Service 

addresses access to private property through the administration of Special Use Permits. 

Designating routes on the NFTS for the sole purpose of providing access to private 

property is not consistent with road management policies (FSM 2730) of the Forest 

Service. Providing access to private property is outside of the scope of this project and 

would need to be pursued by the landowner through the Special Use Permitting 

process.

o Treatment in EIS -

Issue: Access & Right-of-Way - Routes that have historic use on private property should not be 

rejected due to private property rights.
7

o Determination & Consideration - This is not a significant issue. The Forest Service 

addresses access to private property through the administration of Special Use Permits. 

Designating routes on the NFTS for the sole purpose of providing access to private 

property is not consistent with road management policies (FSM 2730) of the Forest

Service. Providing access to private property is outside of the scope of this project and 

would need to be pursued by the landowner through the Special Use Permitting 

process.

o Treatment in EIS -

Issue: Private Property Values at Risk - The proposed action may encourage trespassing onto 

private property. The proposed action may cause a decrease in private property values by 

limiting access to private property or requiring that a SUP be maintained.

o Determination & Consideration – This is not a significant issue. The Forest Service must 

manage its roads system for a variety of resources; however, maintaining buffer zones 

between the public and private property is not within the Forest Service’s mandates. 

The Forest Service is required to work with landowners to ensure they have reasonable 

access to their property. When system roads do not access private property, the law 

(ANILCA) instructs the Forest Service to provide reasonable access through the special 

use permit process. In many markets, the road special use permit positively influences 

the market value of isolated parcels, by showing that the property has some form of 

legal access.

o Treatment in EIS -

PROJECT SCOPE

Issue: Scope too large - Restoration of unauthorized routes, and the addition of new NFTS roads 

and trails should be considered under separate NEPA analyses.

o Determination & Consideration – This is not a significant issue. The scope of the project 

is consistent with the purpose and need of the project, which is to provide for motorized 

recreation and administrative needs, while also reducing resource risks associated with 

the NFTS and inventoried unauthorized routes.

o Treatment in EIS – In response to a significant issue identified concerning Traditional 

Cultural Properties, the geographic scope of the project is being narrowed to eliminate 

those areas from consideration in this environmental analysis.

Issue: For NF Smith River SIA Road Access Decision Reconsideration - Request that roads closed 

under the High Plateau decision be reconsidered in this analysis.

o Determination & Consideration – This is not a significant issue. The North Fork Smith 

River Special Interest Area Road Access Decision was formally reconsidered and found 

to still be warranted.

o Treatment in EIS - Alternatives will not be developed that revisit decisions made under 

the previous decision.
8

Issue: Against NF Smith River SIA Road Access Decision Reconsideration - Request that roads 

closed under the High Plateau decision remain closed to protect serpentine and endangered 

plants found there.

o Determination & Consideration - This is not a significant issue. The North Fork Smith 

River Special Interest Area Road Access Decision was formally reconsidered and found 

to still be warranted.

o Treatment in EIS - Alternatives will not be developed that revisit decisions made under 

the previous decision.

DATA & INFORMATION

Issue: Botanical Surveys - There is a lack of sufficient data to assess impacts to botanical 

resources. Many surveys are over 5 years old and need to be conducted again. No 

“species/habitat management guide” in place. Need to conduct population trend monitoring, 

population viability analyses, or science based research.

o Determination & Consideration – This is not a significant issue. The surveys conducted in 

the past are adequate to support the effects analysis. Additional surveys have been 

completed where necessary. Baseline population data for TES and FSS plants associated 

with the routes to be added to the NFTS has been collected for use in assessing impacts 

to botanical resources. Science based research is beyond the scope of this project.

o Treatment in EIS – The effects to botanical resources will be analyzed using field data 

collected over the life of the project.

Issue: Route Information & Map Representation - Maps are not sufficient to allow public to 

effectively comment in the scoping process. The maps do not adequately reflect the on-theground route network. Many routes that should be identified on maps are not. The public 

requires more accurate information to adequately comment on the project. Extend the 

comment period and allow time for field visits and on-the-ground review of road/trail 

conditions. The use of terms restoration, decommission and stormproofing is confusing. Using 

multiple maps to display the proposed action is confusing.

o Determination & Consideration – This is not a significant issue. Concerns about 

dispersed camping routes missing from the maps were recognized prior to scoping and 

will be addressed in the development of alternatives. Concerns about access to 

dispersed recreation sites will be addressed related to the "Impacts to Recreation 

Opportunity" issue. Errors to maps will be corrected where they exist in the publication 

of the DEIS, FEIS, & ROD.

o Treatment in EIS – Mistakes on maps will be corrected where identified. Future public 

meetings will focus on clarifying terms and maps where there is confusion. 

Consideration of the complexity and opportunity for field visits will be weighed by the 

Responsible Official when determining the length of the comment period for the DIES.
9

ROUTE SPECIFIC ISSUES

Issue: Route Specific - Many route specific issues were identified. These route specific issues 

have been identified in conjunction with the overarching issue identified with them. Some 

common areas of concern are the North Fork/High Plateau/Gasquet Mountain Area and Shelley 

Creek dispersed recreation sites, Jones Flat, McGrew Trail. Also included here is the issue of 

unbarricaded unauthorized routes not added to NFTS, as there is concern that routes not 

physically blocked will be used illegally causing impacts to resources.

o Determination & Consideration - Route specific issues will be addressed in relation to 

the identified issue for them. Where potentially significant issues are identified for a 

particular route, an alternative will be crafted to address the larger issue with particular 

consideration given to the individually identified routes.

o Treatment in EIS – Route specific comments will be addressed in alternatives where 

they are within the scope of the project, within law, policy, and regulation, and meet the 

project’s purpose and need. The route-by-route response to issues is located in 

Appendix B of this scoping report.

The Proposed Action & Alternatives

Alternatives are crafted to respond to significant issues and to reduce impacts where feasible. 

Alternatives must meet the purpose and need of the project, be within the scope of the project, and 

within law, policy and regulation for the Forest to implement. Alternative elements identified above are 

grouped by similar interests to develop a single alternatives that respond to similar types of issues. 

ALTERNATIVE 1 (NO ACTION) — The no action alternative is required for analysis purposes. It proposes 

no change in status quo and the current MVUM would remain in place. The no action alternative 

provides a basis of comparison for other alternatives.

ALTERNATIVE 2 (THE PROPOSED ACTION) – In response to the issue of impacts to Traditional Cultural 

Properties (TCP), the geographic extent of the project’s scope was modified to exclude inventoried 

unauthorized routes (UAR), and National Forest Transportation System (NFTS) roads and trails within 

TCPs in order to protect sacred sites and cultural values related to those areas. The Proposed Action 

that was publicly scoped in April 2012, is dropped from detailed analysis as it exceeds the modified 

scope of the project.

ALTERNATIVE 3 (THE MODIFIED PROPOSED ACTION) – The geographic extent of the Proposed Action 

scoped in April 2012 is modified to exclude Traditional Cultural Properties originally within the project 

area and routes contained within them. The modification of the proposed action responds to the 

significant issue pertaining to Traditional Cultural Properties.

ALTERNATIVE 4 – This alternative adds and keeps more motorized trails and level 2 roads, adds routes to 

dispersed campsites, and adds parking areas. This alternative responds to the significant issue pertaining 

to impacts to motorized and dispersed recreation opportunity.
10

ALTERNATIVE 5 – This alternative removes more roads and does not add as many roads or motorized 

trails where there are identified high resource risks and low needs. It does not designate any additional 

motorized use within IRAs, and it increases protection for Port orford-Cedar and Botanical resources.

This alternative responds to the significant issues pertaining to botanical resources, Port orford-Cedar, 

and Inventoried Roadless Areas.

ALTERNATIVE 6 – This alternative adds routes to popular dispersed campsites, restores dispersed 

campsites not added to the NFTS, barricades inventoried unauthorized routes not added to the NFTS, 

does not add high risk-low need routes to the NFTS, and addresses POC mitigations based on the 

updated risk analysis.

proposed to 

be added

Routes with high or moderate risk 

and low need will be analyzed in 

an alternative to not be added to 

the NFTS. A closer review of this 

route, found that clarification was 

needed. 199.111 goes to a 

dispersed campsite and is 

proposed to add. A spur comes 

off of this route and crosses the 

creek. This spur was renamed as a 

separate route as 199.111A and is 

proposed not to add in PA. Both 

routes will be proposed not to 

add in Alternative 5.

disease.

Mitigation will be closing right 

fork (south) road at junction. The 

majority of POC on route grows 

on proposed closure segment. At 

terminus, adding sufficient gravel 

reduces water flow velocity to 

minimize potential spore travel 

distance, and removing nearby 

POC seedlings significantly 

increases distance to nearest 

mature POC.

17N04.3 has been 

closed off 

for several 

years to the 

public. This 

area is no 

longer used 

as a 

recreation 

site. No 

access, no

the star at 

the Coon 

mountain 

shelter as it 

Is unsafe for 

the public.

Currently no motorized access 

available (already currently 

barricaded); the shelter is 

unstable/ unsafe and therefore 

would present a liability if we 

encouraged access to it by 

designating motorized access to 

that site - so it doesn't meet P&N 

for that reason. (Therefore, no

17N04.3, for which PA=restore:

for addition

the reasons

below. In 

addition to 

the presence

this road 

dissects a 

couple of 

Darlingtonia 

(List 4) fens, 

one of which 

has Viola

(VIPRO/ List

Gentiana 

setigera 

(GESE/ List

) 

The Darlingtonia fen with VIPRO 

is 130 meters below 17N49.11 

and is not bisected by it. Recent 

survey data indicates a healthy 

population of VIPRO persists 

there and could be negatively 

impacted by trying to remove a 

motorized trail that has stabilized 

over the past 25 years. There is 

no Gentiana setigera in this fen. 

The other species mentioned are 

not Forest Service Sensitive 

because they are not so rare that 

there is a concern for maintaining 

viable populations. The 

recommendation to not add this 

route will be included in an 

alternative.

spread of POC the segment of 

18N02 100' either side of Sanger

will be identified for 

rocking/graveling as needed in 

the alternatives. To further 

reduce the risk of spread of POC 

root disease to the uninfected

downgrading to OML 1 (closing)

18N13 Add as 

motorized 

trail

The Decision closing roads 18N09 

south of Diamond Creek and 

18N13 1/4 mile west of the 

Gasquet Toll Road (County Road 

314) was reconsidered and found 

conditions to still warrant the 

closure for the protection of POC. 

Therefore providing motorized 

access on these road segments 

will not be in an alternative 

considered in detail. The report is 

located in the project record.

18n14 consider a 

coordinated 

closure of 

roads 4402, 

18N14, 316, 

19N01, 315 

to prevent 

the spread 

of Allysum. If 

you choose 

not to close 

road access 

to Oregon 

motorized 

users, then 

the EA must 

analyze the 

dire 

consequence

s of the 

spread of 

Allysum into 

the 

serpentine 

landscape

Roads 315 and 316 are Del Norte 

County roads, outside the 

authority of the Forest Service. 

Road 4402 is managed by the 

Rogue River Siskiyou NF, and is 

beyond the scope of this project. 

18N14 is currently closed to 

motorized travel, and no change 

is proposed the proposed action.

coordinated 

closure of 

roads 4402, 

18N14, 316, 

19N01, 315

the spread

not to close 

road access

motorized 

users, then 

the EA must 

analyze the

Roads 315 and 316 are Del Norte 

County roads, outside the 

authority of the Forest Service. 

Road 4402 is managed by the 

Rogue River Siskiyou NF, and is 

beyond the scope of this project. 

18N14 is currently closed to 

motorized travel. Closing roads 

19N01 is managed by the Six 

Rivers and is currently open to 

motorized use with no proposed 

change. Closing 19N01 to 

motorized travel, and barricading 

will be considered in an

This road was not inventoried in

closing roads 18N09 south of 

Diamond Creek and 18N13 1/4 

mile west of the Gasquet Toll 

Road (County Road 314) was 

reconsidered and found 

conditions to still warrant the

Therefore providing motorized

will not be in an alternative 

considered in detail. The report is

for the LE Horton RNA and is 

shown on maps as proposed to be 

added as a motorized trail. UARs 

within the LE Horton RNA are not 

proposed for addition, as this is 

not consistent with the 

management direction in the

This road was not inventoried in 

the RAP, but leads from an 

intersection with roads 18N09 & 

18N13 in Sec. 34, T18N R2E. The 

Decision closing roads 18N09 

south of Diamond Creek and 

18N13 1/4 mile west of the 

Gasquet Toll Road (County Road 

314) was reconsidered and found 

conditions to still warrant the 

closure for the protection of POC. 

Therefore providing motorized 

access on these road segments 

will not be in an alternative 

considered in detail. The report is 

located in the project record.

Why are

Roads who sole purpose is to 

access private property are 

authorized through Special Use 

Permitting and are not open for 

general public use, and are 

therefore not shown on the maps 

or on the MVUM. SUP roads are 

beyond the scope of this project.

Routes 

with POC 

near by

Within the 

SRNRA risk 

analysis, if a 

gate exists, 

no matter 

how risky 

the location 

of the road 

itself, the 

road was 

given either 

a moderate, 

and in some 

cases a low 

risk 

evaluation. 

The review 

should take 

a careful 

look at those 

roads that 

pose the 

highest risk 

to POC, 

regardless of 

gates. 

Untimely 

rains, 

vandalism 

and 

circumventio

n of gates 

should be 

taken into 

consideratio

ll

New Risk model has rated all 

routes within 100' of mapped 

POC or within 50' of infected POC 

as High regardless of gates. These 

routes have been analyzed with 

this consideration and mitigation 

will be suggested as 

circumstances warrant.

not access W109. To
