Description

The Forest Service within the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture (USDA), Bureaus of Indian Affairs (BIA) and Land Management (BLM), Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), and National Park Service (NPS) in the Dept. of the Interior (DOI) have increasingly promoted landscape-scale forest restoration as a way to improve forest health. Through such projects, agencies can treat tens of hundreds of thousands of acres, but they must assess their actions that significantly affect the environment. This report examines (1) the number of landscape-scale forest restoration projects the agencies have conducted and how they are scoped; (2) actions taken by agencies to track the projectsäó» progress; (3) successes and challenges experienced by agencies; and (4) steps taken by agencies to help increase National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) efficiency for such projects. Tables and figures. This is a print on demand report.
