Project Description

The BLM proposes a combination of regeneration harvest, commercial and non-commercial thinning, and fuels treatments across approximately 8,800 acres in the Olalla Creek-Lookingglass Creek, Middle Fork Coquille River, Lower Cow Creek, and West Fork Cow Creek watersheds. The purpose of the project is to achieve specific objectives identified in the 2016 Southwestern Oregon Record of Decision and Resource Management Plan (SWO ROD/RMP) for the Harvest Land Base Low Intensity Timber Area, Moderate Intensity Timber Area, Uneven-aged Timber Area, the Late-Successional Reserve, and Riparian Reserve Land Use Allocations. This project was previously posted for public review and comment under ePlanning number DOI-BLM-ORWA-R050-2022-0001-EA.

The South River Field Office of the Roseburg District Bureau of Land Management has posted the Environmental Assessment (EA) and Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) for public review and comment. You may view the documents by clicking on "Documents" in the menu on the left side of this page; geo-referenced maps included in the EA may be viewed by clicking "Maps" in the menu on the left side of this page. Submission of comments to the BLM regarding this EA are encouraged through this site by clicking the green "Participate Now" button in the menu on the left side of this page or "Participate Now" next to the document link on the Documents page. Comments will be accepted through September 15, 2025.

The BLM previously released the 42 Divide EA on ePlanning for public comment May 1 and June 23, 2025 under NEPA number DOI-BLM-ORWA-R050-2022-0001-EA. The BLM cancelled that ePlanning page on July 1, 2025 to allow for more time to align the environmental analysis with the Endangered Species Act Section 7 consultation timeline. The new release conforms with the new DOI NEPA Handbook formatting requirements and significance considerations. All previous comments collected with the original ePlanning number will be retained in the project record.
