The timber removal will include 2.33 acres under a < 3 acre conversion, 2.05 acres under a 150 foot Fire Safe Exemption and 0.25 acre under a Utility Exemption (total area of tree removal wil be 4.63 acres). The trees to be removed include Sitka spruce, grand fir, Douglas fir, redwood, western red cedar, western hemlock, red alder, and willow. In total, 225 trees with a breast height diameter of over 12 inches will be removed. It is anticipated that 80,000 to 90,000 board feet will be generated from this project. Access to the log landing will be via Bartow Road. Approximately 20-25 loads will need to be hauled away. No timber will be removed from the stream side management area for Mill Creek which runs along the northern property line. The timber harvest will facilitate future residential development including outbuildings, yard, landscaping, and solar access.
