 —Seeking input from the public—
The Bureau of Land Management

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is seeking input from the public regarding a proposal to conduct a hazardous fuels reduction and ecosystem restoration project on approximately 800 acres located about 30 miles southwest of Gunnison, CO around the Skunk Creek area. The proposed project area is located adjacent to Highway 149 within the Lake Fork of the Gunnison drainage. The proposed treatment includes tree thinning which would increase spacing between trees to decrease fire danger and improve forest health. After tree thinning is completed the BLM proposes to burn the area to reduce forest floor fuel accumulations and to increase the amount of grass. In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (CFR 1501.7), the BLM is seeking public participation and input as part of the planning process. Obtain additional information from or send written comments to: Jodi Stevens, Gunnison Field Office, 216 N. Colorado Ave., Gunnison, CO 81230; or e-mail your comments to: Jodi_Stevens@co.blm.gov. Comments and inquiries can also be made by phone by calling (970) 642-4453. In order to ensure consideration in the development of this project, comments should be received by March 6, 2008.
