Keenes Horse Camp, Gifford Pinchot National Forest, Skamania 
County, Washington

AGENCY: Forest Service, USDA.
ACTION: Notice of availability.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Pursuant to 36 CFR 219.35(b), this serves as notification that 
the Gifford Pinchot National Forest Land

[[Page 23230]]

and Resource Management Plan (Forest Plan) is amended to authorize the 
Keenes Horse Camp Project, which was analyzed in the Keenes Horse Camp 
Environmental Assessment. This project is located in Township 11 North, 
Range 10 East, Section 34, Skamania County, Washington State. The 
project will close, rehabilitate and relocate eight of the existing 13 
campsites at Keenes Horse Camp to better meet long-term Aquatic 
Conservation Strategy objectives regarding water quality and riparian 
condition. Construction of an access road for the relocated sites would 
be contrary to the Gifford Pinchot Forest Plan, which precludes new 
developments and road construction in the vicinity of the Keenes Horse 
Camp. The decision amends the Forest Plan to make an exception for 
relocation of the campsites and construction of the associated 400 feet 
of access road. A copy of the Environment, Decision Notice and Forest 
Plan Amendment #15 is available upon request from the Cowlitz Valley 
Ranger District, P.O. Box 670, Randle, WA 98377-0670.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For further information, contact Lynn 
Schinnell, Cowlitz Valley Ranger District, P.O. Box 670, Randle, WA 
98377-0670, or phone (370) 497-1121.

    Dated: April 30, 2001.
Claire Lavendel,
Forest Supervisor.
