Damon Creek Project Subcommittee

The Damon Creek Project Subcommittee has just recently begun working on this project area. The Subcommittee recently toured the project area and has begun compiling areas of agreement. Read the field tour and meeting minutes, and see the agreements to date and the proposed project timeline.

Dad's Creek Project Subcommittee

The Dad's Creek sub-basin has been identified as a priority project area because current forest conditions pose problems for ecosystem health and adjacent homeowners.  Members of the BMFP have toured the area and consulted with Forest Service specialists to determine priority issues for the area. These include:

• Reducing the threat of wildfire near homes and community infrastructure
• Increasing forest stand diversity and restoring the forest to a condition that is more resilient to the impacts of fire
• Enhancing the presence and diversity of hardwood tree species and old growth conditions
• Enhancing aquatic ecosystems
• Offsetting project costs and creating community economic opportunities through utilization of woody biomass removed during treatments.
