There would be no new ground disturbance under the No Action alternative. As such, there would be no direct effects to vegetation resources as a result of the No Action alternative. It is unlikely that the No Action alternative would have any long-term indirect effects on vegetation resources. Noxious weed infestations would likely continue in the future, but spread or establishment of new non-native species could not be attributed to taking no action.

The No Action alternative would have no cumulative effect on vegetation resources in the Piute- Eldorado Valley.
