notice to read:
The Administrator, Foreign Agricultural
Service (FAS), approved a petition for trade
adjustment assistance (TAA) that was filed
on February 1, 2005, by Gollott’s Oil Dock
and Icehouse, Inc., Biloxi, Mississippi. The
certification date is March 14, 2005.
Beginning on this date, shrimpers who land
their catch in Mississippi will be eligible to
apply for fiscal year 2005 benefits during an
application period ending June 13, 2005.
Upon
investigation, the Administrator
determined that increased imports of
farmed shrimp contributed importantly
to a decline in the landed prices of
shrimp in Mississippi by 30.4 percent
during January 2003 through December
2003, when compared with the previous
5-year average.
Eligible producers must apply to the
Farm Service Agency for benefits. After
submitting completed applications,
producers shall receive technical
assistance provided by the Extension
Service at no cost and may receive an
adjustment assistance payment, if
certain program criteria are satisfied.
Applicants must obtain the technical
assistance from the Extension Service by
September 12, 2005, in order to be

Notice of intent to prepare an
environmental impact statement.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
SUMMARY: The USDA, Forest Service,
will prepare an environmental impact
statement (EIS) on a proposed action to
improve forest health conditions within
the 46,175-acre Kelsey planning area.
An analysis was initiated to assess tree
density and hazardous fuels and
associated forest related concerns of
wildfire, insect infestations, and disease
pathogens. Methods that would be used
to reduce tree density and hazardous
fuels are: Non-commercial and
commercial thinning, mechanical shrub
treatment, and prescribed burning. The
planning area is located adjacent to the
southern urban growth boundary of
Bend, Oregon, east and adjacent to the
Deschutes River and the community of
Sunriver, north of Forest Road 9720,
and west of Forest Road 1810. The
planning area is a combination of public
lands (99%), managed by the Deschutes
National Forest, and private lands (1%).
The alternatives will include the
proposed action, no action, and
additional alternatives that respond to
issues generated through the scoping
process. The agency will give notice of
the full environmental analysis and
decision-making process so interested
and affected public may participate and
contribute to the final decision.
DATES: Comments concerning the scope
of the analysis must be received by 30
days following the date that this notice
appears in the Federal Register.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background. The analysis of the 46,175acre Kelsey planning area was initiated
in 1999. The planning area includes
wildland urban interface, winter deer
habitat, key elk habitat, the Upper
Deschutes Wild and Scenic River, and
the Newberry National Volcanic
Monument. In July 2003, the 18 Fire
burned approximately 3,520 acres
within the planning area along the
northeast boundary. The area within the
fire perimeter was analyzed separately
in the 18 Fire Salvage Recovery Project
EIS.
The Kelsey planning area is located
within the dry eastside forests of central
Oregon. Large ponderosa pine (greater
than 21″ in diameter) once dominated
the landscape. During the 1930s and
1940s, this area was owned and clearcut
by private commercial enterprises,
leaving few residual individual large
trees and very few small stands of
larger, older ponderosa pine. The Forest
Service acquired these private lands
during the ensuing years. The area now
consists primarily of an even-aged,
single story, black bark ponderosa pine
forest with encroaching lodgepole pine.
The average size of the ponderosa pine
is approximately 12 inches in diameter
at breast height (dbh), with much of the
tree size within the 9 to 14 inch dbh
range. Less than one (1) percent of the
planning area is classified as large, old
growth ponderosa pine. Highly
flammable shrubs are the primary
understory vegetation throughout the
planning area and beyond. As a result
of suppression of wildlife for
approximately 90 years, large
contiguous areas of dense shrubs can
spread fire into the tree canopy.
Desired Condition. To provide a
sustainable forest, one where
disturbances such as wildfire, insects,
and disease occurrences are more
typical of a properly functioning
eastside forest.
Purpose and Need. Low intensity
wildfire frequently burned the eastside
ponderosa forest ecosystem with a fire
interval of generally less than 30 years,
reducing stand density and natural
fuels. The combination of fire
suppression since the early 1900s and
clear cutting has created a scenario with
uncharacteristically high stand density
