Road 650 Improvement

This project is a Collaborative Forest Landscape Restoration Project (CFLRP). The goal of the CFLRP project is to utilize collaborative, science based ecosystem restoration techniques to improve watershed function while encouraging ecological, economic and social sustainability with an emphasis on providing local employment opportunities. The project consists of road improvements along 10.45 miles of FS Road 650. Work also includes two gate installations on roads adjacent to the 650. Work on the main 650 includes grading the road surface, brushing the roadway, installing cross drain and stream crossing culverts, placing riprap, and placing spot aggregate surfacing. There are areas that will require roadway excavation and material hauling to and from the Twin Ravens Pit.

The project site encompasses FS Road 650 from the Forest Service boundary to the junction of FS Road 1106. The project begins at the FS boundary approximately 3 miles east of Clearwater, ID.
