The Mt. Hood National Forest has released the Draft Environmental Impact Statement for the Government Camp-Cooper Spur Land Exchange. The document describes the potential effects of the conveyance of two parcels totaling approximately 109 acres on the Zigzag Ranger District in Clackamas County in exchange for the acquisition of approximately 769 acres of land owned by Mt. Hood Meadows in Hood River County. The draft EIS describes the proposed action, a no-action alternative, and two additional alternatives that were considered but not developed or analyzed in detail. While no significant issues that drive alternatives were identified, the draft reviews the potential effects of the swap on a variety of resources, including cultural resources; hydrology; wetlands; water rights; threatened, endangered, and sensitive species; recreation; visuals; facilities; and socio-economics. The draft EIS document is available on the Mt. Hood National Forest website, and public comment will be taken for the next 90 days.
