T34N R01W sections 19, 30, 31

Maintain current species mix and apply appropriate management techniques to mature stands of timber that are in need of treatment.

North half of compartment is Cheboygan-Blue Lake Association; south half of compartment is Detour-Brevort Association.

Mostly all state ownership except for some private ownership on the north end and a couple private parcels on the south end.

The Pigeon River has been classified as a Natural River and receives special protection.

None identified.

None identified.

The Little Pigeon River flows into the mainstream of the Pigeon River in the south end of the compartment.

Please refer to Wildlife Biologist's comments.

Sections 19, 30 and 31, T34N-R1W, Cheboygan CountySurface sediments consist of coarse-textured glacial till. The glacial drift thickness varies between 50 and 200 feet. Beneath the glacial drift are the Devonian Antrim Shale and Traverse Group that are quarried for cement products and limestone elsewhere in the State. Afton quarry is located three miles to the north. A gravel pit is located to the north and there is good potential. This area was previously leased for oil and gas development. The Antrim Shale subcrops in this area and appears to be too thin for production. The Niagaran reef trend is located eleven miles to the southeast. There is limited oil and gas potential for known producing formations in this compartment.

Consistent with the objectives of the Concept of Management there are no plans to engage in mining activities (sand, gravel, stone, etc.) or oil and gas development in this Compartment. Nondevelopment (no surface infrastructure including pipelines, new roads, utility lines, well pads, etc.) oil and gas leasing may be considered.

There is good access to most, if not all, of the compartment. Most of the roads, however, have been closedto wheeled motorized vehicles with virtually all those closures still intact.

None required.

No maintained recreational facilities exist within this compartment.

Additional Compartment Information:

Access is poor in case of any fire suppression efforts, though the area is generally at low risk to any wildfire potential. Most road systems are closed with berms.

This stand will be combined with stand 41 in Compartment 2. A Final Harvest with 2-3 retention islands is prescribed. Also, select 1-2 larger diameter trees of any species to be felled and left on the ground to serve as drumming log opportunities for Ruffed Grouse.

Cedar is the ultimate objective, but early successional species such as Birch, Balm, Red Maple, aspen and spruce may dominate the early regeneration. It is hoped and anticipated that Cedar will then gradually begin to fill in the stand over a period of years

A fully stocked or moderately stocked stand of aspen regeneration is the intended outcome, but a combination of species meeting those stocking levels will be acceptable in determining regeneration success.


Winter harvest. Use of trail road acceptable, construct separate landing and do not use existing openings for landing areas.

Final Harvest with 3-5 retention islands. Also, select several (1-2 per acre) larger diameter trees of any species to fell and leave on the ground to serve as drumming log opportunities for Ruffed Grouse.

A coldwater lake has temperature and dissolved oxygen conditions that allow naturally-reproduced or stocked trout populations and those of other coldwater fish species to persist from year to year. Suitable conditions for coldwater fishes may occur in Michigan lakes if they are relatively deep, have substantial groundwater inflows, or are located in colder (northern) areas of the state. Such lakes are established by Director's action and designated as trout resources by Fisheries Order 200.

Cold Water LakeSCA

A coldwater stream has temperature and dissolved oxygen conditions that allow naturally-reproduced or stocked trout populations and those of other coldwater fish species (e.g., slimy sculpin) to persist from year to year. Coldwater streams in Michigan typically provide these conditions due to substantial contributions of groundwater to their stream flows. Such streams are established by Director's action and designated as trout resources by Fisheries Order 210.

Cold Water Stream

SCA

A transitional area between aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems in which the terrestrial ecosystem influences the aquatic ecosystem and vice-versa. Because of the unique conditions adjacent to lakes, streams and open water wetlands, riparian areas harbor a high diversity of plants and wildlife. Riparian communities are ecologically and socially significant in their effects on water quality and quantity, as well as aesthetics, habitat, bank stability, timber production, and their contribution to overall biodiversity.

Riparian AreaSCA

There are two Natural Rivers datasets which are derived from spatial buffers set from an established and approved distance from the river centerlines. The Natural Rivers Zoning District is a 400 foot buffer for most Natural Rivers. The Vegetative Buffer ranges from 25 to 100 feet. To view specific Zoning Districts and Vegetative Buffers for each Natural River see the table located on the I:\Documentation\GDSE data folder.
