This THP is about 5 miles NE of Nevada City, CA and about 3 miles north of Highway 20 near the South Fork of the Yuba River at an elevation of 3,000 to 3,800 feet. Sierra Pacific Industries is planning a tractor based logging operation in ponderosa pine, sugar pine, white fir, incense cedar and Douglas fir forests. Nine road drainage sites are planned for work including rocking, dip construction, ditch cleaning and culvert repair/replacement. A northern goshawk territory is located within .15 miles of the THP area in section 13, a CA spotted owl nesting territory is located within .11 miles of the THP area in section 14, a CA spotted owl nesting territory is located within .27 miles of the THP area in section 27, and a CA spotted owl nesting territory is located within 2.5 miles of the THP area in section 3. There was also a report of a CA red legged frog within 1 mile of the THP area in 2007, and Butte county fritillary was reported within .25 miles of the THP area.
