E08.1_FY26_BMRD_Stocking Survey_DUIS.xlsx

This is a stocking survey spreadsheet for reforestation and natural regeneration projects on the Malheur National Forest in Oregon, organized by project area and unit. The survey identifies three primary project areas: Sand (6 units totaling 410 acres with 79 plots), Rail Ridge Rail 26 (27 units totaling 1,288 acres with 281 plots), and Crockets Knob Natural Regeneration (10 units totaling 708 acres with 173 plots). Each unit contains detailed information including acreage, number of survey plots, walk-in accessibility status, and comprehensive field notes documenting terrain characteristics, vegetation conditions, previous planting history, natural regeneration presence, and special access requirements.

The survey data provides critical logistical and environmental details for contractors performing stocking surveys under the referenced BPA Call Order. Access notes specify road routes from John Day, Oregon, and identify seasonal restrictions on certain forest service roads due to hunting season closures. Multiple units require walk-in access ranging from 0.25 to 2 miles, while others are accessible by vehicle. Field conditions vary significantly by unit, with common challenges including rocky terrain, steep slopes, perennial and intermittent streams, lodgepole thickets, and areas of previous plantation activity where tree survival is anticipated. This comprehensive survey baseline establishes the scope and operational parameters for contractors conducting stocking condition assessments across these three distinct project areas.
