The fir and spruce timber stands , in other <br /> • words , occur on steep to very steep slopes in relatively <br /> shallow soils with moderate erosion hazard and revegetation <br /> capabilities . <br /> Aspen timber is generally not in high demand <br /> commercially. Stands of Aspen occur on steep to very steep <br /> slopes , in shallow soils with moderate to high erosion <br /> hazard and moderate to low revegetation capabilities . <br /> As noted , most of Coal Basin fits classifications <br /> VII or VIII of the Soil Conservation Service soil capability <br /> classification definitions . <br /> According to the definitions : <br /> "Depending upon the soil characteristics and local <br /> climate , soils in this class (VII) may be well or <br /> poorly suited to woodland . . . " <br /> • Factors which inhibit use of Class VII soils <br /> include very steep slopes , erosion, shallow soil , and <br /> unfavorable climate . All are present in Coal Basin . <br /> "Soils and landforms in Class VIII cannot be expected <br /> to return significant on-site benefits from management <br /> for crops , grasses , or trees . . . <br /> Officials of the White River and Gunnison <br /> National Forests indicate that there are no plans to harvest <br /> timber in the permit , mine plan or adjacent areas : <br /> "There are no plans to harvest timber in the area <br /> because of marginal timber stands , steep slopes , and <br /> access problems .
