About this project (2001):
Title: Sugar Pine Maintenance and Restoration
Purpose: Improve growing and establishment conditions for sugar pine. Understand what treatments are needed to restore and maintain sugar pine and minimize disease and insect impacts to this species.
Methods: Develop and test methods of thinning around remaining live sugar pine trees (variable radius) to restore and maintain sugar pine populations. Plant sugar pine within clearings in young Douglas-fir plantations to determine if the species can be reestablished under these conditions.
Monitor: Sugar pine long-term survival, vigor, and regeneration under different treatments.
Status: Initial Treatments (harvest, planting) completed in 2000. Follow-up work (pruning young trees, clearing vegetation around remaining live sugar pine trees) to be completed this year. Post-treatment data collection is ongoing.
Location: Wolf Pine Timber Sale (FS and BLM) on the Little River Adaptive management Area.
