Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the impacts of logging and the construction of forest roads, presenting a case study that assesses the environmental consequences of harvesting and the attendant road construction on the Coram Experimental Forest in Montana. The author was involved in road construct…ion in National Forest Systems and Research for over 22 years, and shares valuable insights gained from their experience. The author's research delved into the environmental impacts of logging and road construction. The study demonstrated how to locate, design, and construct a road with reduced impacts on the environment, while still serving the near-minimum needs of traffic volumes, vehicle sizes, and logging equipment. The book highlights the importance of balancing resource utilization with environmental preservation. It demonstrates how a single-lane road with reduced clearing widths and carefully planned construction can significantly reduce esthetic impacts and minimize hydrologic disruption compared to traditional practices. The author emphasizes the value of fitting the road to the terrain, using drainage and erosion control measures, and implementing revegetation efforts. The book concludes with a discussion of the trade-offs between environmental impacts and user costs, emphasizing the importance of evaluating these factors when determining road standards. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
