<br />d <br /> <br />Social and Economic Environment <br /> <br />" Managing bioolVeISity may result in changes that affect much of the SL V. Humans are an important part <br />of the ecosystem thus management includes consideration for the people who live in the SLY. At this <br />point it is uncertain how sustaining ecosystems while implementing multiple-use management will affect <br />the social and economic structure of the SLY. The EIS analysis, including alternatives and the effects of <br />alternatives, will show the effects of ecosystem management. The public will have a chance to comment <br />on this analysis and it will help the responsible official mak.e an informed decision. <br /> <br />The management chosen for roadless areas may vary from wilderness, to undeveloped roadless, to <br />developed with motorized vehicles allowed. The choice will affect goods and services produced from <br />the RGNF and thus local employment and income. The choices and effects will be analyzed and displayed <br />for each alternative. <br /> <br />. Decisions related to all multiple uses affect reaeation and travel management, the numbers of people <br />visiting the RGNF, and how they use the Forest. All SLY communities are affected by the numbers of <br />recreation users and the types of use. Recreation, fishing, and hunting uses contributed about 7.7 <br />percent of the annual income and 11.3 percent of the employment in the SLY during 1986 to 1989. <br /> <br />Oil and gas leasing and development has little chance of having an important influence in theSLV <br />economy or social structure. This is because most of the Forest has little or no potential for discovery of <br />those minerals. However, developable discovery could result in large effects environmentally, <br />economically, and socially. The EIS will explore various levels of leasing and development. <br /> <br />-. ~ J ': l~ . .. <br />L_...".....J <br /> <br />11-11 <br />
