SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    The Idaho Roadless Rule permits the Chief of the Forest Service to 
modify Idaho Roadless Area boundaries based on changed circumstances or 
public need after providing public notice and a 45-day public comment 
period. Pursuant to 36 CFR 294.27(b), the Forest Service proposes to 
modify the West Mink Roadless Area boundary, located in the Caribou-
Targhee National Forest, to allow for the relocation and expansion of 
the Gibson Jack trailhead.
    The existing Gibson Jack trailhead outside of Pocatello, Idaho does 
not provide adequate parking to accommodate the trail's high level of 
use. Vehicles must park along the trailhead's access road on adjacent 
private lands. Expansion of the trailhead in its existing location is 
not feasible because of the presence of steep and erodible slopes. The 
West Mink Roadless Area surrounds the trailhead on three sides.
    A flat bench approximately 700 feet west of the existing trailhead 
and inside the roadless area would provide adequate space to 
accommodate trailhead parking and for vehicles pulling trailers. Moving 
the trailhead to this location requires removing 11.4 acres from the 
roadless area and reconstructing approximately 700 feet of a closed 
Forest Service road that currently serves as a non-motorized trail.
    The Forest Service also proposes to eliminate an 18.8-acre area (or 
``cherry stem'') that has been carved out of the same roadless area. 
This 18.8-acre area follows a closed Forest Service road which has 
since been converted to a motorized trail. The Forest Service will add 
these 18.8 acres to the Roadless Area and remove the previously 
mentioned 11.4 acres to accommodate the new trailhead, resulting in a 
net increase of 7.4 acres to the West Mink Roadless Area. The boundary 
modification would improve the area's manageability for the Caribou-
Targhee National Forest. The trailhead relocation would provide 
improved access and safety for trail users and meet current and 
projected recreation demand. A map of the proposed modifications is 
available at: http://www.fs.usda.gov/detail/roadless/idahoroadlessrule/?cid=stelprdb5382399.
    The Forest Service prepared an environmental assessment to analyze 
the impacts of the trailhead relocation and roadless area boundary 
modifications. The Chief of the Forest Service is the responsible 
official for the boundary modification under the Idaho Roadless Rule. 
The Forest Supervisor, Caribou-Targhee National Forest, is the 
responsible official for the trailhead relocation project. The Forest 
Service will consider public comments on the proposed boundary 
modifications in coordination with the proposed trailhead relocation. 
The environmental assessment, finding of no significant impact, and 
draft decision notice for the trailhead relocation are available at the 
Caribou-Targhee National Forest Supervisor's Office, 1405 Hollipark 
Drive, Idaho Falls, ID 83401 or on the Internet at: www.fs.usda.gov/projects/ctnf/landmanagement/projects. The trailhead relocation project 
is subject to the objection process at 36 CFR part 218 and 219. 
Information on filing an objection on the trailhead relocation project 
is available at the Web site above.
