BLM issues decision on Nelson Creek Culvert Project
The Bureau of Land Management Northwest Oregon District Upper Willamette Field Office has issued a decision record to replace a culvert on Nelson Creek, which will restore aquatic habitat and vehicular access to over 100 acres of public lands. Prior to implementation, approximately 80,000 board feet on two acres of BLM-administered lands will be harvested to accommodate a temporary fill storage area.
