Cadillac Forest Management Unit COMPARTMENT REVIEW

COMPT. NO RMU KEY VALUE REVIEW DATE

132 237 Mixed Use March 26,2002 YOE ACRES COUNTY REVISION DATE 2003 2667 Wexford 10/2/2008

Note: This compartment was inventoried using the new IFMAP system. Many differences exist in how data and treatments are developed and presented. The IFMAP system is still under development.UPDATE: RED PINE PROJECT PHASE 2 PROJECT. STAND 15 WILL BE FINAL HARVESTED AND RE-PLANTED TO RED PINE. Stand Examiner: Sterrett and Lint Legal Description: T24N, R10W, Sections 7-9, 16-18 T24N, R11W, Sections 12 and 13 1. Soil Series: Mostly Rubicon-Montcolm-Graycalm association. The

Tawas-Crosswell-Lupton association dominates the lowlands. Karlin series is found in the hardwood areas.

2. Terrain: Relief elevation changes of up to 300 feet. Steep river

bluffs and banks along with upland and lowland plateaus. Well drained uplands and poorly drained lowlands.

3. Ownership Patterns, Development & Land Use: Three private land

holding areas: the NE ¼ Sec. 12, the N ½ of the NE sec. 7, and, the NENW, SENW & NESW in Sec. 8. The NENW of Sec. 8 has an additional adjoining strip of land in the NWNE 33 feet by 624 in order to access it off the county road. The other two forties in sec. 8 (currently the Hanser 80) has an easement to it which was granted in 2000. There is also a small 1-acre parcel in the NWNWNW corner of sec. 8 between Grassy Lakes. All of these parcels would are recommended for land acquisition.

4. Unique, Natural Features: The Manistee River marks the south

boundary of this compartment. Potential for wood turtle and massasauga along Manistee River. Potential for Goshawk and Red Shouldered Hawk. For Michigan's Natural Features Inventory data click on the adjacent link MNFI 2003.doc

5. Historical Features: High Rollaways Overlook 6. Special Management Considerations: This compartment contains an old

growth corridor along the Manistee River. The SE of sec. 7 contains an ORV Restoration site developed about 1998. It appears to be holding with some minor illegal use of ORV. Compartment has wide spread illegal ORV use, primarily from full size trucks, along the riverbanks and bluffs on old two tracks and hill climbs. A

Director Order closing a large portion of the compartment to wheeled motorized use is in effect. A vehicle access plan for the overlook and compartment is being implemented in the coming year should help address some of these concerns. A substantial erosion site (stand 126) is being proposed for rehab work in conjunction with the Resource Conservation Alliance under a 319 Grant in the next few years. A fence trespass is being resolved in S1/2NE section 12.

7. Recreational Facilities & Opportunities: High Rollaways Overlook, a

very popular scenic site is located in this compartment. Considerable improvements such as a viewing deck, parking area and pathway have been installed. Addition work is schedule for the summer of 2002, which will complete the project. There is a Park and Recreation Division river access site located in stand 128 that allows vehicle boat access to the Manistee River. The Baxter Bridge State Forest Campground is located across the 29 1/2-Mile Road from the access site in the adjacent compartment 150.

8. Watershed & Fisheries Considerations: The Manistee River flows

through Compartment 132. The Manistee River is a Designated Trout Stream, and in this area supports popular sportfisheries for brown trout, walleye, and northern pike. Brown trout are stocked by MDNR. Due to Natural Rivers considerations, no cutting should take place within 175’ of the Manistee River.

9. Priority Wildlife Species: Those wildlife species associated with

dry-mesic forested communities and riverine communities. (L.Smith 11/30/01)

10. Habitat Objectives: This compartment is located within the

Highplains Ecosystem, Grayling Outwash Plain Subsection, LTA’s 5111 and 2221. Soils in this area are characterized by deep, excessively drained sands. Historically, this area was composed of northern hardwood forests of American beech and sugar maple or mixed forests of red pine/white pine, beech and red maple. Forests of beech and hemlock were also extensive. Presently, the area is composed of mixed dry-conifer, dry hardwoods, and aspen. The Manistee River runs along the south boundary of the compartment. The river valley is utilized as a travel corridor for numerous wildlife species and is an important deer wintering area. Wildlife habitat objectives are to continue to maintain species and age-class diversity across the compartment and to continue to manage the Manistee River corridor for the maximum diversity of wildlife species. (L.Smith 11/30/01)

11. Oil & Gas Facilities--Concerns/Restrictions: No development

currently. Most of this compartment would probably be poorly suited to oil and gas development given its proximity to the river, areas of steep terrain and areas of old growth.

12. Mineral Management Objectives: Surface sediments consist of

glacial outwash sand and gravel and post-glacial alluvium and end moraine of coarse-textured till. Glacial drift thickness varies

Page 3 of 3

S:\OIPC\OIPC_Compartment_Review_onthe_Web\Cadillac\2010\Cmpt132RedPine\132.doc Last saved by Department Of Information Technology

between 200 and 600 feet. There is over 300 feet of relief within the compartment. Beneath the Glacial Drift are the Mississippian Coldwater Shale and the Marshall Sandstone. The Marshall was previously used as a building stone. A old gravel pit is located in Sec. 18. Gravel potential is good, especially the upland area. There is also an old pit in section in section 7. Neither pit has been active in the last twenty years and are considered abandon. This area lies 4 miles southeast of the prolific Silurian Niagaran reef trend. There does not appear to be any potential for Niagaran reefs in this area. This area is not currently leased for oil and gas and potential appears limited. Part of the compartment. Is surface only.

13. Roads & Bridges: We have a State Easement on the two-track passing

over private lands in sec. 7, the N ½ of the NE. A forest road access plan is detailed on the compartment map.

Identified are state and county roads as well as forest roads and trails under the jurisdiction of the DNR. Also indicated are forest roads and trails under the jurisdiction of the DNR that are proposed for abandonment. These roads have been determined to be in excess of our access needs, are a threat to the resources, or are a concern environmentally.

Proposed new roads or roads recommended for substantial improvement are noted below:
