Orofino, ID: Snag retention is not site-specific but based on a blanket coverage. Why not base snag retention on actual need and not probable need?
In Table 3-5, standard HA-S7 directs local managers to use a local analysis to determine the need for snag retention. The snag levels provided in that standard are to be used only in the absence of local data and if mangers decide to move forward with a project and not conduct a snag analysis. 102. St. Maries, ID: The 1910 fires burned most of north Idaho long before any forest management (Smokey Bear) had an impact on forest structure and fire frequency or intensity. How will frequent low intensity fires in the white pine/hemlock/red cedar forests alter, for the better, what appears to have always been the typical fire patterns? Answer: Much of the moist forests of north Idaho evolved under a mixed fire regime with a combination of both lethal and nonlethal fires. Under extreme fire and rare conditions, lethal fires burned and will burn in the future. However, through more thinning and prescribed fire we can break up the landscape fuel continuity, reduce fire fuels, and make sure futu
