Project Description

The purpose of the Proposed Action is to address the increasing demand from both the general public and local partners to mitigate environmental impacts, adequately protect natural and cultural resources, enhance public recreation in a natural setting, and support non-motorized recreational opportunities within the Barnes Grade, Crowder Flat, and Noble Creek area, located near the town of Alturas, CA. Proposed activities include: constructing multimodal trails, installing parking/trail head facilities, vault toilet installation, installation of informational kiosks, phased juniper/fuels reduction and re-seeding, installation of signs and barriers, and disc golf.

For the purposes of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA), Section 106, this project is classified as "4. Preliminary determination of no adverse affect to historic properties".
