This is a conversion and I am applying for a Class IV Forestry Practices Permit. In the process of creating this large lot subdivision I am also preserving, in perpetuity, 30+ acres in permanent open space. I have received preliminary plat approval from Jefferson County(see attached). I have gone through the S.E.P.A. process with Jefferson County during which selective logging of the property was proposed and reviewed. The property consists of two distinct parts that are separted by a county road (McInnes Rd.,) the upland portion of the property is ,, little more than six acres. This property was logged approximately 17 years ago and today mixed hardwoods of maple and alder dominate the hillside. There are some 50-75 year old firs and cedars on the property and these will be harvested. Most of these trees are located along McInnes Road. The logger estimates that these trees will. amount to one to two loads. There is an existing old logging road on the hillside(as indicated on the drawing) and it will be utilized in harvesting the two loads. The portion of the property to the east of McIn~es Road(30+ acres) is composed of two main parts: (a) a large pasture area and(b)a large wetland. No logging will take place within a 100' of the wetland or within 50'of Donovan Creek.' The latter runs through the property in a north-south direction. This~is a Class 3 creek. A conservation easement has been placed on a good portion of the wetland and a conservation easement will be placed on all of the 30+ acres east of McInnes Road)see drawing indicating old and new conservation easement and language of conservation easement). Although(as indicated above) no logging will take place within 50' of the creek of 100' of the wetland, the terms of both the old and new conservation easement do allow and permit logging in the conservancy area. There is an existing logging road on this portion of the property and it is marked on the enclosed drawing. This road will be utilized in removing the trees. The trees will be removed from the west side of the property(along the county road). The trees are almost all firs and appear to be 50-75 years old. The logger estimates that there are probably 4-5 loads of trees to be harvested in this area. Application for Class IV permit Project Summary ~ p.2. The 30+ acre property east of the county road has been in agricultural zoning. When the cQnserva~ion easement is in place it will be removed from agricultural classification and placed in open space. No further subdivision of the property will be permitted. The hillside property(that 6 acre parcel west of the county road) is currently zoned one house per acre. I am developing six building sites on this property. Buffers Immature Hemlocks will be planted along west side of the road and on the north and south borders of the upland portion of the property. These are intended as visual buffers. Smaller native brush will be planted on the east side of the road.
