Forests, Chelan Ranger District, Washington
AGENCY: Forest Service, USDA.
ACTION: Revised notice of intent to prepare an environmental impact
statement.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: On October 17, 2002, the USDA, Forest Service, Okanogan and
Wenatchee National Forests, published a Notice of Intent (in Federal
Register, 67 FR 64082) to prepare an environmental impact statement
(EIS) for Crupina Vegetation Management. The current Forest Service
vegetation management strategy would be more accurately reflected if
this project EIS were titled ``Crupina Integrated Weed Management
Project''. Therefore, this EIS is revised. Other environmental analyses
activities related to past wildfires have delayed the release dates for
this EIS. The revised release date for the draft EIS will be July 2003
and the final December 2003.
