“…It has been proposed, and generally accepted that any fishers that may occur in this area are members of one of two genetically isolated populations remaining in Oregon; and also that any individuals in the southern Cascade Range population are descendants from a reintroduction effort that occurred between 1977 and 1981 (Aubry and Lewis 2003).…”

“…Besides the extant native Klamath-Siskiyou population and reintroduced southern Cascades population, the fi sher is thought to be extirpated from most of its historic range in Oregon and Washington (Aubry and Lewis 2003). There are no density or abundance estimates but it is likely extant fi sher populations are small due to the relative reduction in the range of the fi sher on the West Coast and the lack of detections or sightings over much of its historical distribution.…”

As the Nation's principal conservation agency, the Department of the Interior has responsibility for most of our nationally owned public lands and natural resources. This includes fostering the wisest use of our land and water resources, protecting our fi sh and wildlife, preserving the environmental and cultural values of our national parks and historical places, and providing for the enjoyment of life through outdoor recreation. The Department assesses our energy and mineral resources and works to assure that their development is in the best interest of all our people. The Department also has a major responsibility for American Indian reservation communities and for people who live in Island Territories under U.S. administration. U.S. Bureau of Land Management USER'S GUIDEThe Timber Mountain Recreation Management Plan and Dra Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) for the management of off -highway vehicle (OHV) recreation is divided into four chapters, and includes maps, references, an index, and an appendix. Chapter 1 (Purpose and Need)Chapter 1 provides the introduction to this DEIS. It provides a description of the planning area and defi nes the purpose and need for the preparation of this document. This chapter also describes the planning and scoping process, outlines the issues that will be addressed in this EIS, and defi nes the relationship between the DEIS and existing laws, regulations, and policies. Chapter 2 (Alternatives)Chapter 2 contains a description of the fi ve alternatives, including the No-Action Alternative (Alternative 1). Project Design Features, an essential part of the action alternatives, are also described in this chapter.Descriptions of the components of the alternatives including trail class descriptions, state regulations regarding OHV use, and law enforcement assumptions are included in this chapter. Table 2-9 provides a brief summary of the eff ects of the alternatives. Chapter 3 (Affected Environment and Environmental Consequences)Chapter 3 presents the existing conditions in the planning area, and associated analysis areas, along with the estimated environmental eff ects of implementing the alternatives. This chapter is organized by resource topics. Under each resource, the aff ected environment and the environmental consequences of each alternative are discussed. Chapter 4 (Consultation and Coordination)Chapter 4 includes a summary of public involvement, a list of elected offi cials, agencies, organizations, and tribes receiving the document. This chapter also includes a list of the specialists involved in preparing this DEIS.The References and the Index provide an aid to the reader in fi nding and understanding the material contained in this document.The Appendix contains additional information supporting the Water Resources Section of Chapter 3 document.

“…Despite the extensive size of the Sierra Nevada, the conservation needs of wide-ranging carnivores (including the fisher and marten, which have disproportionately large home ranges for their sizes) should be considered over even larger bioregions (Noss andothers 1996, Aubry andLewis 2003). For example, only two native fisher populations occur in the Pacific states: one in the southern Sierra Nevada, and the other in the western California/Oregon border region (Aubry and Lewis 2003).…”

“…For example, only two native fisher populations occur in the Pacific states: one in the southern Sierra Nevada, and the other in the western California/Oregon border region (Aubry and Lewis 2003). Fishers are extirpated from Washington and most of Oregon, and populations are sparse in southern British Columbia (Proulx and others 2004).…”

Murphy, Dennis D. and Stine, Peter A., editors. 2004 Land and resource management issues in the Sierra Nevada are becoming increasingly complex and controversial. The objective of the Sierra Nevada Science Symposium was to provide a synoptic overview of the current state of scientific knowledge related to key management issues. Attempts were made to tie recent scientific findings to applications in land management and policy development. The symposium addressed four primary objectives: to highlight ecological research and monitoring activities ongoing in the Sierra Nevada; to provide access for all interested parties to information on Sierran research activities, databases, and web sites; to identify new research needs and priorities of organizations, particularly those interested in managing resources or lands in the Sierra; and to explore opportunities to expand and leverage collaborative research opportunities in the Sierra Nevada, including those that encourage interagency, student, and intern involvement. The papers in this volume are summarized presentations by each speaker, as well as overview summaries provided by the session chairs. Introductory and synoptic papers precede or follow the main presentations of the conference. Poster abstracts for the approximately 100 posters presented at the symposium are also included.
