ORICK, Calif. — Redwood National and State Parks has completed its conservation planning process for two restoration projects; the Greater Prairie Creek Ecosystem Restoration Project (GPC), and the Lower B500 Road Removal Project (B500). The decision to implement each project is recorded in a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) pursuant to NEPA, and in a Notice of Determination pursuant to CEQA for the GPC project.
The GPCERP will implement restoration across 9,200 acres in the Prairie Creek watershed including both State and National Park lands with some work beginning in the fall of 2019.
The Lower B500 project will remove 0.8 mile of logging haul road and eliminate the potential for sediment delivery into the lower reach of Larry Damm Creek. The work is expected to begin on Sept. 16, 2019, and take approximately one month to complete.
