Restoration of our national forests benefits the environment and
creates jobs in rural communities. Increasing the pace of
restoration of the Nation's forests is critically needed to address
a variety of threats including fire, climate change, the bark
beetle infestation, and others -- to the health of our forest
ecosystems, watersheds, and forest-dependent communities. The
Forest Service within the Department of Agriculture and the Bureau
of Indian Affairs (BIA), Bureau of Land Management (BLM), Fish and
Wildlife Service (FWS), and National Park Service (NPS) within the
Department of the Interior have increasingly promoted
landscape-scale forest restoration as a way to improve forest
health. Through landscape-scale projects, agencies can treat tens
or hundreds of thousands of acres, in contrast to projects commonly
of under 1,000 acres. Such projects must comply with NEPA by
assessing the effects of major federal actions that significantly
affect the environment. This book examines the number of such
projects the agencies have conducted and how they are scoped; the
actions taken by agencies to track the projects' progress;
successes and challenges experienced by agencies; and steps taken
by agencies to help increase NEPA efficiency for such projects.
