This Final Environmental Impact Statement documents the analysis of three alternatives, including the "No Action" alternative, that were developed for the proposed Tailholt Administrative Research Study. The alternatives respond to the major issues and resources that were identified for this project. The action alternatives would allow timber harvest, using helicopter yarding and no road construction, to be conducted as part of an ongoing study designed to provide forest managers with information on minimizing resource damage when conducting forest management activities.

Boise River Wildfire Recovery Project Final Environmental Impact Statement, United States Forest Service
Final Environmental Impact Statements (ID)
The Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) describes three alternative approaches for salvage harvest and reforestation across 102,000 acres of National Forest System land that burned in 1994.
