Dear Sirs & Madams;
Enclosed is a one-time conversion request for one parcel owned by Alfred Combaz. He is
the timberland owner for parcel 061-580-019. The intent is to make room for Driveways
and Septic Systems on the parcel. A take tree mark was done with blue paint marks
including butt mark. The marking was done with the owner and is intended to clear the
area for the above mentioned use. The LTO will remove the trees. The LTO will also be
responsible for treating the slash generated by the operation to the standards of Section
1104.1(2)(d) of the Forest Practice Rules.
The exemption area boundaries are flagged in solid pink flagging. Access to the parcel
will be by the existing roads off Encino Grande road. No watercourses are present in the
exemption boundaries. No endangered or threatened plant or animal species were
observed. Habitat for such species was not noted. This project is in accordance with Butte
County regulations and an assistant planner has signed off on its compatible use. A copy
of the notice posted on the parcel at least 5 days before submission (copy of notice
attached, posted (September 28, 2005). A copy of the notice was sent to owners of record
within 300 feet and the archeological contacts for Butte County (October 7, 2005).
A list of the adjacent property owners are enclosed.
Sincerely
David Whittier

Winter Operating Plan
Winter Operations
Winter period means the period between November 15 to April 1, except for the purpose of installing
drainage facilities and structures, waterbreaks and rolling dips in which case the period shall be October
15 to May 1.
Timber operations may occur during the winter period. Any logging conducted during the winter period
will meet the requirements of 14 CCR 934.7 (b) specifically;
1) Erosion Hazard Rating- No winter operations will occur on tractor areas over 50% slope or areas
rated as High EHR. The project area has been rated as moderate EHR and no slopes are over 50%.
2) Mechanical Site Preparation Methods- No site preparation activities will occur.
3) Yarding System (constructed skid trails)- Tractor yarding shall be utilized, existing skid trails will
be utilized to the fullest extent possible.
4) Operating Period- Tractor operations will only take place during dry, rainless periods where soils are
not saturated (see below for definition). The following definition for "saturated soil conditions" will be
used. Saturated soil conditions means that site conditions are sufficiently wet that timber operations
displace soils in yarding areas or displace road and landing surface materials in amounts sufficient to
cause a turbidity increase in drainage facilities that discharge into Class I, II, III, or IV, waters, or
downstream Class I, II, III, or IV waters that is visible or would violate applicable water quality
requirements.
In yarding areas, this condition may be evidenced by: a) reduced traction by equipment as indicated by
spinning or churning of wheels or tracks in excess of normal performance, b) inadequate traction without
blading wet soil, c) soil displacement in amounts that cause visible increase in turbidity of downstream
waters in a receiving Class I, II, III, or IV waters, or in amounts sufficient to cause a turbidity increase in
drainage facilities that discharge into Class I, II, III, or IV waters, or d) creation of ruts greater than
would be normal following a light rainfall.
On logging roads and landing surfaces, this condition may be evidenced by a) reduced traction by
equipment as indicated by spinning or churning of wheels or tracks in excess of normal performance, b)
inadequate traction without blading wet soil, c) soil displacement in amounts that cause visible increase
.in turbidity of the downstream waters in receiving Class I, R, III, or IV waters, or in amounts sufficient to
cause a turbidity increase in drainage facilities that discharge into Class I, II, III, or IV waters, d)
pumping of road surface materials by traffic, or e) creation of ruts greater than would be created by
traffic following normal road watering, which transports surface material to a drainage facility that
discharges directly into a watercourse.
5) Erosion Control Facilities Timing- The requirements of 934.6(a)(2) shall be met which are:
Installation of drainage facilities and structures is required from October 15 to May 1 on all constructed
skid trails and tractor roads prior.to sunset if the National Weather Service forecast is a chance (30% or
more) of rain within the next 24 hours, and prior to weekend of other shutdown periods.
6) Consideration of form of precipitation -rain or snow- Most precipitation is in the form of rainfall
but snow does occur in small amounts every few years due to the elevation of the project area is 2,400
feet.
7) Ground conditions (soil moisture condition, frozen)- See 04 for saturated soil definition.
No operations shall occur on snow covered conditions, operations shall occur during dry rainless periods
as described under #4 above and when the soils are not saturated.
8) Silvicultural System -ground cover- The silvicultural system will result in both overstory and
understory canopy retention in the majority of the exemption area. Most of the hardwood and a portion of
the conifers will be left. The reason for the exemption is to put a septic system in place..
9) Operations within the WLPZ- No winter operations will occur within any designated WLPZ, no
watercourses are present in the exemption area.
10) Equipment use limitations- No road or landing construction will occur during the winter period or
in this exemption. Only routine or annual maintenance may occur to roads or landings, also see #4 above.
11) Known unstable areas- No known unstable areas are present in the exemption area, thus no impact
to unstable areas shall occur.
