Salem District
Bureau of Land Management
As the Nation’s principal conservation
agency, the Department of Interior has
responsibility for most of our nationally
owned public lands and natural resources.
This includes fostering economic use of
our land and water resources, protecting
our fish and wildlife, preserving the
environmental and cultural values of our
national parks and historical places, and
providing for the enjoyment of life through
outdoor recreation.
The Department
assesses our energy and mineral
resources and works to assure that their
development is in the best interest of
all people. The Department also has a
major responsibility for American Indian
reservation communities and for people
who live in Island Territories under U.S.
administration.

Dear Citizen:
The Salem District Project Update provides current information about projects planned on lands administered
by the Bureau of Land Management’s (BLM) within the Salem District. It is our intent to increase the public’s
awareness of BLM issues, activities and opportunities, as well as generating ideas and comments from those
who may be affected by our multiple-use management programs. Your ideas, comments, and participation help
us make informed decisions and implement better projects.
This Project Update is organized by resource area and within each resource area by type of project. Additional
information can be obtained from the BLM staff listed as contacts. Please send written comments, including the
specific project name, to the appropriate address listed below during the identified public comment period.

Winter 2012 Salem Project Update
~ Notice ~
On March 31, 2011, the United States District Court for the District of Columbia vacated and remanded the administrative
withdrawal of the Salem District’s 2008 Record of Decision and Resource Management Plan (Douglas Timber Operators
et al. v. Salazar).
The Salem District will design new projects to conform to the management objectives, land use allocations, and management direction set out in the 2008 ROD and RMP. However, due to continuing uncertainty regarding planning in western
Oregon, we will design projects so that they are not inconsistent with the Salem District’s 1995 RMP. As a result, some
new projects may include some design features not mentioned specifically in the 2008 ROD and RMP. Nonetheless, these
projects will be consistent with the goals and objectives in the 2008 ROD and RMP.
Current projects are described in Tables 1 – 4.
Fiscal Year 2011 timber sales are described in Table 5.
Explanatory comments concerning Tables 1–4:
Projects are organized by project type, project name/description, location, planning status, and contact person. A project
may include the following stages:
Developing Proposed Action – A site-specific proposal, called a proposed action, is developed to move the existing condition
of an area towards a desired condition or result.
Scoping – Public comment is sought on the proposed action. Comments are used to refine the proposal, or to identify issues
which will define the scope of analysis and alternatives to be considered.
Developing Alternatives – A range of alternatives is developed based on the issues raised during scoping, while addressing
the purpose and need for the project.
Analyzing Effects – The effects of implementing the alternative(s) are determined and documented in an EIS (Environmental
Impact Statement), EA (Environmental Assessment), CX (Categorical Exclusion), or DNA (Determination of NEPA
Adequacy).
Comment Period – Comments are generally sought for 60 days on a draft EIS, and for 30 days on an EA, and FONSI
(Finding of No Significant Impact). There are no established comment periods for a CX or DNA. Comment periods are
established commensurate with the anticipated level of public interest.
Notice of Decisions – Notice of decisions from an EIS and EA will be published in a newspaper in the area where the lands
affected by the decision are located. They will be sent to those who have requested such notices. Notices of decision from
an EIS will also be published in the Federal Register. Notice for projects which qualify as a CX or DNA will be available
for public review at the appropriate field office.
