The proposed treatments would primarily include cutting smaller diameter conifer trees and piling and burning or chipping the cut material.

The project is a total economic loser. Wait for the cry of “We just didn’t have enough funding.”

I bet the drive by media will never ask the question, ‘Gee, If they would cut some of the bigger trees, wouldn’t that have generated enough money to treat most of the affected area? Last I heard, there were no sawmills left in Colorado...don’t see how anyone would build one given the current USFS policy.....
