Summary: EPA supports new and
expanded snowshed construction
without the use of explosives, given the
avalance hazard and impacts to wildlife.
However, we expressed
environmental concerns about barriers
to wildlife travel, and recommended
incorporating measures for wildlife
passage into snowshed design and
construction.

environmental concerns about potential

Summary: The Final EIS addressed
EPA’s concerns in terms of limiting the
number of roads, trails and campsites.
However, the ROD should consider
including a commitment to increase
mitigation to the level of use over time
as well as include a more
comprehensive monitoring plan. Added
protections to grizzly bear habitat will
also protect water quality and other
forest resources.
