Accomplishments Related to Road Management
Since 2008 these numbers have changed slightly for the planning unit but have not been updated these include: Baseline inventory of roads completed in December 1999. For a visualization of the active road system by area of DNR managed land refer to Chart H-1. Inventory of all stream crossings and assessment and prioritization of culvert fish blockages completed in April 2001. Ninety-six fish blockages are expected to be repaired or abandoned by 2016. Sixteen have been repaired or abandoned to date (DNR RMAP 2008). Fifty-four miles of road to be decommissioned or abandoned by 2016. Twenty-one miles have been decommissioned or abandoned to date (DNR 2007 Chart H-2). HCP guidelines for assessment slope stability PR 14-004-050 completed in August 1999.

As of August 2005, road assessments have been completed according to the Forest Practices Rules. For a summary of RMAP work refer to Chart H-3. Chart H-1. Number of Active Road Miles HCPUNIT_NM S. PUGET SURFACE_TRUST_CD (All) TIMBER_TRUST_CD (All) ROAD_ACT_STAT_CD 10 Total

Road Maintenance Priorities and Corresponding Forest Road Condition Record (Tabular Data):
Prioritize maintenance for normal and storm event maintenance activities. Emergency plans will be included for extraordinary maintenance needed after major storm events. In accordance with WAC 22224-051 (7), all repair work or existing condition is listed by the following: A. Improve or remove structures inhibiting fish passage beginning with blockages affecting the most habitat. Generally, this means starting at the bottom of the basin and working upstream. FPA/HPA required. Will submit plan and design during operational year. A1. Improve or remove stream crossings where fish passage is not needed or fish passage exists. FPA required, HPA likely required. Will submit plan and design during operational year. B. Repair or maintenance work to reduce sediment delivery from surface erosion and/or mass wasting. (Within bull trout range, areas where sediment delivery or mass wasting will most likely increase stream temperature by filling pools will be given highest priority.) C. Correct drainage or unstable sidecast, especially in areas where mass wasting could deliver to public resources or threaten public safety. D. Repair or maintenance work to disconnect road drainage from streams. E. Repair or maintain stream-adjacent parallel roads (SAP) with a particular emphasis on eliminating water and sediment delivery from the road to the stream. All SAP roads are listed in tabular data. Existing condition of road and repairs, when needed, will be consistent with the priorities and conditions listed in this section. F. Repair or maintenance work to improve hydrologic connectivity (i.e. to minimize interruption of surface water drainage, the interception of subsurface water and pirating of water from one basin to another). G. Other repair or maintenance work which can be undertaken with the maximum operational efficiency. Scheduling maintenance to fit the overall highest priority areas/basins first does not necessarily correspond to priorities above, but still provided the best results in total.
