Fry-Zim EIS/Basin Creek EIS; Kootenai National Forest; Lincoln 
County, MT; Correction of Fry-Zim Notice of Intent and Change of Name 
to Basin Creek EIS

AGENCY: Forest Service, USDA.

ACTION: Environmental impact statement correction and name change 
notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This correction gives notice of changes to the Fry-Zim Notice 
of Intent published in the Federal Register March 9, 1995 (FR document 
is FR 95-5695 Filed 3-8-95). The Fish Lakes and Zimmerman Hill fire 
salvage portions of the Fry-Zim project were analyzed under the Fry-Zim 
Salvage Environmental Assessment, and a Decision Notice was signed on 
October 8, 1996. The Basin Creek portion of the Fry-Zim project will be 
analyzed under a separate analysis entitled the Basin Creek 
Environmental Impact Statement (EIS). The Basin Creek proposed action, 
developed in response to a mountain pine beetle infestation, remains 
the same as originally presented in the Fry-Zim EIS Notice of Intent.
