Area of brush removed in areas identified through assessment activities
Basics
Area of brush removed in areas identified through assessment activities
Action
Acre (acres)
Measures progress towards implementation result, "Brush and vegetation impairing or impeding large oak branching structures are removed." This result has the objective, "Retain and promote large oak branching structures, cavities, acorn production, and other critical oak habitat features through removal of brush and competing vegetation to reduce severe fire threat and set the stage for reintroducing low intensity fire."

Habitat Type
- Dry-type forest – Dry-type forests exist east of the Cascade Mountains and southwest in the Umpqua and Rogue watersheds of the Siskiyou and Klamath Mountains. This forest type spans 14 million acres in Oregon and constitutes roughly half of all forests in the state. For more, see: oregonconservationstrategy.org/strategy-habitat/ponderosa-pine-woodlands
- Oak Woodland and Prairie – One of the most endangered ecosystems in the U.S. due to land conversions and altered fire regimes. Yet, these habitats are home to roughly 30 bird, terrestrial, and plant species addressed in the Oregon Conservation Strategy. For more, see: oregonconservationstrategy.org/strategy-habitat/oak-woodlands
- Aquatic – Inland aquatic habitat supports an incredible number of Oregon’s native fish and wildlife species. The extent of biodiversity in an aquatic habitat is a reflection of the native fish, plants, and other aquatic species (e.g., freshwater mussels, Oregon spotted frogs) present there.

Grant Reporting Instructions
Information for this Metric is entered into the Project Tracker by the implementing partner’s project manager after completing field operations on each project, and by the end of December of the year. Projects that take place over more than one year should report project area completed in each year by December 31st of that year. Treatment area should be rounded to the nearest tenth of an acre. If a certain area is treated twice, either for two different species or in two separate instances, both treatments should be reported.
