WORK TO BE DONE (describe or attach exact specifications of work to be done):

A. General Description: Plan preparation of the Burned Area Emergency Response Emergency Stabilization Plan for Forest Service lands impacted by the Murphy Fire Complex: Wildhorse Zone. B. Location/(Suitable) Sites: USFS Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest: Mountain City Ranger District and Ruby Mountains/Jarbidge Ranger District lands within the Murphy Fire Complex: Wildhorse Zone, consisting of 95,163 acres, Elko County, Nevada. C. Design/Construction Specifications: Conduct a detailed assessment of soil burn severity, its impacts to lands and the threats to life and property, protect critical cultural and natural resources, mitigate impacts to cultural and natural resources, and assess and mitigate suppression impacts. Write emergency stabilization treatment specifications based on aerial and ground reconnaissance, and consultations with local specialists. Treatments must meet objectives of approved land management plans. Write resource assessments justifying treatments, identifying issues, observations, findings, and recommendations. Prepare GIS maps for BAER Plan and presentations. Print/copy plan in hardcopy and on CDs. Submit plan and documentation to District Rangers. D. Purpose of Treatment Specifications: Per the Delegation of Authority received from the USFS Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest, the BAER Team was tasked to prepare a Burned Area Report (FS-2500-8) and comprehensive ES plan to manage or mitigate the fire impacts in order to protect life and property and protect cultural and natural resources. Emergency stabilization actions are based on a plan developed immediately post-fire and intended to be implemented within one year of fire containment (Aug. 2, 2007). In addition, the BAER Team entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with the BLM Jarbidge Field Office to provide GIS support developing a soil burn severity map, vegetation mortality map, and GIS analysis as needed. In addition the BAER Team provided aerial reconnaissance, watershed modeling, and training on watershed issues. E. Treatment consistent with Agency Land Management Plan: The treatments prescribed in the ES Plan comply with the Districts’ plans including: Humboldt National Forest Land and Resource Management Plan and Final Environmental Impact Statement, October 1999 Reprint with Amendments #1 – #6 Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest, Land and Resource Management Plan, Assessment of Wilderness Potential, 2006 Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest Fire Management Plan, 2007 Environmental Assessment for Noxious Weed Control Program, Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forests, Elko, White Pine and Humboldt Counties, Nevada 1996 Environmental Assessment Bruneau River Watershed Environmental Analysis, Humboldt National Forest, Mountain City Ranger District, Nevada 1994 FSM 2000 – National Forest Resource Management, Chapter 2080 – Noxious Weed Management, 2004 F. Treatment Effectiveness Monitoring Proposed: The ES Plan details monitoring for treatment effectiveness as prescribed for each treatment specification. A final report will be prepared to document the treatment monitoring.
