Document Description
Remove pole size (>10 in. dbh) Douglas-fir trees and mature coyote brush from coastal prairie habitat within Fort Ross State Historic Park. In absence of fire, these species are invading high-quality native perennial grasslands. Trees will be cut nearly flush with ground level and slash will be scattered to contact ground and maintain scenic vistas from Highway 1. Coyote brush shall be cut at the base and treated with triclopyr or treated with a foliar application of triclopyr. Work shall be time (August 31 - February 1) to avoid impacts to nesting birds and northern spotted owl breeding activities. No earth disturbance will occur as a result of this project.
