This document is an appendix containing reference tables for vegetation and environmental survey data collection.

Appendix 1 provides species coding classifications for commercial coniferous tree species (columns 2-3) and other vegetation types (columns 9-12). Commercial species include Douglas-fir (D), Western Hemlock (H), Ponderosa Pine (P), Jeffery Pine (J), Sugar Pine (S), and True Fir Noble/Shasta (N), along with various true fir and cedar species. Additional vegetation categories include trees such as Red Alder, Big Leaf Maple, Pacific Madrone, various oak species, and conifers; shrubs including Ribes, Rubus, Serviceberry, Elderberry, and Oregon Grape; forbes including Wedgeleaf, Bear Grass, Whitethorn, and ferns; and grasses classified as annuals (Ga), bi-annuals (Gb), or perennials (Gp).

Appendix 2 establishes vegetation density percent classes using symbols L (0-09%), M (10-39%), H (40-69%), and VH (70-100%). Appendix 3 defines tree damage causes and interfering conditions (Column 17) with codes such as B for Brush & Animals, C for Chlorosis, F for Freezing Temperature/Frost, and others through Y for Mechanical damage. Column 18 addresses animal-related problems with codes including B for Mountain Beaver, D for Deer/Elk, G for Gopher, L for Livestock, and others. Hazard ratings range from High (1) to Low (9), with Medium ratings at 5 and 7 (MH and ML respectively).
