C04g_2c_Mitchell Jackson IRSC Unit Summary.xlsx

This is a harvest unit activities summary spreadsheet for the Mitchell-Jackson Integrated Restoration Stewardship Contract (IRSC) located in two subdivisions: Area 56 and Powerhouse. The document details commercial harvest units and non-commercial treatment units with specifications for forestry operations across multiple cutting areas.

The commercial harvest units are organized by subdivision and include detailed information on 96 cutting units in Area 56 and 50 cutting units in the Powerhouse subdivision, ranging from 2 to 77 acres per unit. Each unit specifies the skidding and yarding method (Tractor, Skyline, or ORSY), designation method (Species Designation or Designation by Prescription), and required activities including landing cleanup, felling, damaged residuals removal, whole tree yarding, slashing, hand slashing of ninebark, excavator piling, scarification, planting, animal damage control, and various burning operations (grapple pile burn, landing pile burn, and underburn). Units are categorized by work status: Contractor Required Work, Forest Service Required Work, and Work Completed. The non-commercial units comprise fuels treatment areas (mastication, hand slashing, hand piling) and timber stand improvement areas (pre-commercial thinning and pruning), with 27 non-commercial units in Area 56 and 45 units in the Powerhouse subdivision. The overall project aims to modify forest fuel conditions to reduce wildland fire intensity and minimize potential contamination spread from Libby Amphibole Asbestos in the adjacent Operable Unit 3.
