WHITE BANKS MSNE E.~o-tm~T B VEGETATION Potential Natural Communities Subwell: mountain big sagebrush/bluebunch wheatgrass (Artv/Rosp) dry site and (PosaPoan3/SALI) moist site Endoaquolls: (Sabo]-SALUCaca) and bluejoint reedgrass- cliff sedge/mopuntain bluebells (Caca-Casc2lMeci) and planeleaf willow/water sedge (Saphp/Caaq) Seral Stages: dominated by plants of the respective potential natural communities Present Vegetation: dominated by plants of the respective natural communities USE AND MANAGEMENT CONSIDERATIONS Major uses: homesites, livestock grazing, wildlife habitat, aquatic habitat, scenic vistas and watershed Mass movement potential: Landslides: low Debris flows: low Page 3 Snow avalanche: low Road and trail limitations: Cut and fill slope stability Subwell: moderate -variable textures Endoaquolls: severe -high water table and staturated soil Improved unsurfaced roads Subwell: moderate -variable textures and proximity to wetlands Endoaquolls: severe -high water table Offroad vehicle roads and trails Subwell: moderate -variable textures, proximity to wetlands and surfae compaction and rutting Endoaquolls: severe -high water table Foot trails and paths Subwell: slight Endoaquolls: severe -high water table Revegetation considerations Revegetation Cryaquolls soil with riparian vegetation requires maintaining a high water table. Buffer zones are required on adjacent map units to minimize impacts to wetlands. Timber management considerations Buffer zones are required on adjacent map units to minimize impacts to wetlands Wildlife management considerations This map unit provides food, shelter and water to upland game animals. Where streams occur, this map unit provides aquatic habitat. Acid precipitation buffering capacity: high
