This proposal would allow up to 70 acres of harvest within 200 feet of existing roads on Mitkof Island. Harvest would include green trees using uneven-aged management and may include the removal of dead and dying trees.
Location
The harvest sites will focus on a 200 foot strip from the edge of the road prism on existing National Forest System Roads within Development LUDs on Mitkof Island.
