BILLING CODE 3410–05–P 

DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE 

Forest Service 

Sheppard Creek Post-Fire Project, 

Flathead National Forest, Flathead and 

Lincoln Counties, MT 

AGENCY: Forest Service, USDA. 

ACTION: Notice; intent to prepare 

environmental impact statement. 

SUMMARY: The USDA Forest Service will 

prepare an environmental impact 

statement (EIS) for a proposal to salvage 

merchantable timber affected by the 

Brush Creek wildland fire on the Tally 

Lake Ranger District of the Flathead 

National Forest. This fire burned a total 

of approximately 30,000 acres on the 

Flathead and Kootenai National Forests 

from July to September of 2007. 

Approximately 25,000 acres burned on 

the Tally Lake Ranger District where 

this project is proposed. The Kootenai 

National Forest will be preparing a 

separate salvage proposal. The city of 

Whitefish, Montana is located about 

twenty air miles to the east of the 

central portion of the project area. 

DATES: Comments concerning the scope 

of the analysis should be received in 

writing on or before January 15, 2008. A 

public scoping meeting will be held in 

the city of Kalispell, Montana on 

January 9, 2008. The draft 

environmental impact statement (DEIS) 

is expected to be filed with the 

Environmental Protection Agency and 

made available for public review in 

April of 2008. No date has yet been 

determined for filing the final 

environmental impact statement (FEIS). 

ADDRESSES: Send written comments to 

Lisa Timchak, Tally Lake District 

Ranger. The mailing address is Tally 

Lake Ranger District, 650 Wolfpack 

Way, Kalispell, Montana 59901. 

Electronic comments may be e-mailed to 

comments-northern-flathead-tallylake@fs.fed.use with ‘‘Sheppard Creek 

Post-Fire Project’’ in the subject line and 

must be submitted in MSWord (*.doc) 

or rich text format (*.rtf). Comments 

received in response to this request will 

be available for public inspection and 

will be released in their entirety if 

requested pursuant to the Freedom of 

Information Act. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Purpose and Need for Action 

The purpose and need for the action 

is to recover merchantable wood fiber 

affected by the Brush Creek Fire in a 

timely manner to support local 

communities and contribute to the longterm yield of forest products. 

Fire-killed trees do not typically 

maintain their merchantability as wood 

products for more than one to three 

years, depending on their species and 

size. Sapwood staining, checking, 

woodborer damage, and decay will 

deleteriously reduce timber volume 

after that time. Smaller-diameter trees 

typically will not be merchantable 

within a year. Larger-diameter trees can 

retain their merchantability as wood 

products for a longer period, but 

merchantability will deteriorate as time 

goes on. While considering ecological 

needs, salvage harvesting an appropriate 

amount of fire-affected trees in a timely 

manner to ensure their economic 

utilization and starting the reforestation 

process in the burned area will help 

facilitate meeting desired conditions 

within the area of the Brush Creek Fire. 

Proposed Action 

The proposed action includes salvage 

of trees from approximately 6500 acres, 

which represents about 30 percent of 

the area that burned in the 2007 Brush 

Creek Fire on the Flathead National 

Forest. Approximately 17 miles of road 

reconstruction are proposed to access 

burned trees. This reconstruction on 

existing road templates would allow use 

of the road during salvage operations 

and would later close them after salvage 

operations are completed. In addition, 

new temporary road construction is 

proposed on approximately 9 miles to 

access burned trees. No salvage or road 

building is proposed within inventoried 

roadless lands. Planting conifer 

seedlings and ensuring that Best 

Management Practices would be 

maintained on roads used for the 

salvage would also be included in this 

project. 

More detailed scoping information 

and maps can be accessed on the 

Flathead National Forest internet site at 

http://www.fs.fed.us/rl/flathead/. 

Possible Alternatives 

Alternative A is the no-action 

alternative. Alternative B, the proposed 

action described above, was developed 

by the interdisciplinary team to respond 

to the purpose and need for action and 

to comply with the Flathead Forest 

Plan. At least one additional action 


pwalker on PROD1PC71 with NOTICES
70294 Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 237 / Tuesday, December 11, 2007 / Notices 

alternative will be developed by 

modifying the proposed action to 

respond to the significant issues 

identified during the public 

involvement and scoping process. 

Responsible Official 

The Responsible Official is the Forest 

Supervisor of the Flathead National 

Forest, 650 Wolfpack Way, Kalispell, 

Montana 59901. The Forest Supervisor 

will make a decision regarding this 

proposal considering the comments and 

responses, environmental consequences 

discussed in the final EIS, and 

applicable laws, regulations, and 

policies. The decision and rationale for 

the decision will be documented in a 

Record of Decision. 

Nature of the Decision To Be Made 

An environmental analysis for the 

Sheppard Creek Post-Fire Project will 

evaluate site-specific issues, consider 

management alternatives, and analyze 

the potential effects of the proposed 

action and alternatives. The scope of the 

project is limited to decisions 

concerning activities within the 

Sheppard Creek Post-Fire Project Area 

that meet the Purpose and Need, as well 

as desired conditions. An 

environmental impact statement will 

provide the Responsible Official with 

the information needed to decide which 

actions, if any, to approve. 

This EIS will tier to the Flathead 

National Forest Land and Resource 

Management Plan and EIS of January 

1986, and its subsequent amendments, 

which provide overall guidance for land 

management activities on the Flathead 

National Forest. 

Scoping Process 

Public questions and comments 

regarding this proposal are an integral 

part of this environmental analysis 

process. Comments will be used to 

identify issues and develop alternatives 

to the proposed action. To assist the 

Forest Service in identifying and 

considering issues and concerns on the 

proposed action, comments should be as 

specific as possible. 

Input provided by interested and/or 

affected individuals, organizations, and 

government agencies will be used to 

identify resource issues that will be 

analyzed in the draft EIS. The Forest 

Service will identify significant issues 

raised during the scoping process, and 

use them to formulate alternatives, 

prescribe project design features, and/or 

analyze environmental effects. 

Preliminary Issues 

Preliminary issues and concerns 

include effects of treatments on the 

following: Soils, old growth and mature 

tree wildlife habitat, cavity nesting 

wildlife habitat, threatened and 

endangered species habitat, and 

potential bark beetle epidemics. 

Comment Requested 

The comment period on the draft 

environmental impact statement will be 

45 days from the date the 

Environmental Protection Agency 

publishes the notice of availability in 

the Federal Register. 

The Forest Service believes, at this 

early stage, it is important to give 

reviewers notice of several court rulings 

related to public participation in the 

environmental review process. First, 

reviewers of draft environmental impact 

statements must structure their 

participation in the environmental 

review of the proposal so that it is 

meaningful and alerts an agency to the 

reviewer’s position and contentions. 

Vermont Yankee Nuclear Power Corp. v. 

NRDC, 435 U.S. 519, 553 (1978). Also, 

environmental objections that could be 

raised at the draft environmental impact 

statement stage but that are not raised 

until after completion of the final 

environmental impact statement may be 

waived or dismissed by the courts. City 

of Angoon v. Hodel, 803 F.2d 1016, 

1022 (9th Cir. 1986) and Wisconsin 

Heritages, Inc. v. Harris, 490 F. Supp. 

1334, 1338 (E.D. Wis. 1980). Because of 

these court rulings, it is very important 

that those interested in this proposed 

action participate by the close of the 45 

day comment period so that substantive 

comments and objections are made 

available to the Forest Service at a time 

when it can meaningfully consider them 

and respond to them in the final 

environmental impact statement. 

To assist the Forest Service in 

identifying and considering issues and 

concerns on the proposed action, 

comments on the draft environmental 

impact statement should be as specific 

as possible. It is also helpful if 

comments refer to specific pages or 

chapters of the draft statement. 

Comments may also address the 

adequacy of the draft environmental 

impact statement or the merits of the 

atlernatives formulated and discussed in 

the statement. Reviewers may wish to 

refer to the Council on Environmental 

Quality Regulations for implementing 

the procedural provisions of the 

National Environmental Policy Act at 40 

CFR 1503.3 in addressing these points.
