  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Riparian Function and Stream Temperature: Effectiveness of Oregon Department of Forestry’s Protection Rules and Strategies (OWEB #201-733) Abstract -- The Forest Practices Monitoring Program proposes in this report that future monitoring, with the objective to evaluate effectiveness, utilize a pre/post harvest measurement design coupled with control reaches. The proposed project evaluates stream temperature and riparian condition before and after harvesting. Sites will be evaluated on both privately-owned and state-owed forestland. A pre/post- study design that establishes control, treatment, and downstream reaches, 2 years prior to harvest is proposed. Temperature, channel, overstory and understory riparian characteristics will be monitored two years prior to harvest and for 5 years after harvesting to evaluate harvest effects and recovery rates. This project approach, design, and proposed analysis will go through a review process involving reviewers from private research, DEQ, ODF&W, stakeholders, researchers, and representatives of the environmental caucuses.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: West Fork Illinois River Watershed Analysis Abstract -- The West Fork Illinois River Watershed Analysis (Iteration 1.0) document was completed in June 1997 to provide an ecological context for proposed mineral development, including management recommendations. The focus of iteration 1.0 was the serpentine portion of the watershed on Forest Service lands. The purpose of the current document and analysis is to expand on this earlier analysis by adding the lower elevation BLM land areas. It identifies the various ecosystem components in the lower elevation areas of the West Fork Illinois River fifth field watershed and their interactions at a landscape scale. The analysis looks at historical ecological components, current ecological components and trends. It makes recommendations for future management actions that could be implemented to reach recommended ecological conditions.
