adequate habitat to support the regional
species of concern. The Final EIS
should include more information about
impacts from timber harvest to riparian

a major unintended release. EPA also
recommends continued coordination
with Environmental Justice
communities in the area to ensure that
their concerns are addressed as the
project progresses.
