Washington Forest Practices Act Sample Clauses

Washington Forest Practices Act. Management activities on non-federal forest lands in Washington are generally subject to the Washington Forest Practices Act (RCW 76-09) and Forest Practices Rules (FPR). As such, certain forest management activities require prior approval through the Forest Practices Approval process, and others simply require conformance to the FPR without prior approval. Timber harvesting and other management activities conducted under the Wetland Habitat Plan may require approval under the FPR.

Washington Forest Practices Act. PSE could have additional Critical habitat (state) for marbled murrelets (Brachyramphus marmoratus), Bald eagles (Haliaeetus leucocephalus), and Peregrine falcons (Falco peregrinus) on their project lands. WDFW recommends PSE follow Washington Administrative Code (WAC) 000-00-000 (a), (f), (h), and (j) for protecting Critical habitat (state). Please consult with WDFW for additional measures to avoid or minimize impacts to all special status species while conducting management activities. [Response 7.] Comment noted. As stated in Chapter 5, “The management of osprey nest structures under this plan will be in compliance with all applicable local, state, and federal laws and regulations.“ Comment Puget Sound Energy Response [Comment 8.] 6.7 Monitoring and Adaptive Management, third paragraph. WDFW commends PSE on evaluating monitoring results for indications of effects of human disturbance. We recommend that PSE particularly concentrate on NEW human and management action disturbances. Ospreys grow accustomed to constant and current disturbances, but may abandon nest sites when new loud noises or other human disturbances occur. Please note that nest area habitat changes during the non-breeding season may also cause ospreys to abandon sites when they return.

[Response 8.] PSE believes consultation with the TRIG on new management actions, projects and recreational activities near osprey nesting sites is beyond the scope of SA 506 and unnecessary. SA 506 requires the maintenance of osprey nest structures on Xxxx Xxxxxxx, but it does not require the preparation of osprey nest site management plans. The potential for human disturbance has been and will continue to be a consideration in identifying suitable locations for nest structures. Other than recreational use of Xxxx Xxxxxxx (primarily for fishing), there is little human activity in the vicinity of the osprey nests. Going forward, potential impacts will be detected through the monitoring described in Section 6.7. When and if such impacts are identified PSE will consult with the TRIG regarding the appropriate response. Preemptive actions in anticipation of potential impacts would be inappropriate, perhaps deleterious and contrary to the concept of adaptive management in the Settlement Agreement and contained a...
