COMPARTMENT: 168

GAYLORD FOREST MANAGEMENT UNIT
COMPARTMENT REVIEW PRESENTATION
COMPARTMENT: 168
ENTRY YEAR: 2011
Compartment Acreage: 2,893
County: CHEBOYGAN
Revision Date: 06/03/2009
Stand Examiner: DANIEL HECKMAN
Legal Description: T35N R02W Sec. 19-21, 28-32
Management Goals: To provide for the protection, integrated management and responsible use of a
healthy, productive and undiminished forest resource base for the social, recreational, environmental and
economic benefit of the State of Michigan.
Soil and Topography: This compartment is very flat with limited changes in topography. Dominant soil
types are excessively drained Rubicon and Grayling Sands. These very dry, sandy soils formed on outwash
plains.
Ownership Patterns, Development, and Land Use in and Around the Compartment: State ownership is
fairly contiguous with surrounding private property being broken into small private parcels.
The area is prone to illegal trash dumping because it’s the nearest state land to Indian River. The Adopt-aForest program coordinator has been contacted to help organize a clean-up effort.
The Lakehead Pipe line travels through this compartment.
Unique, Natural Features: Hill’s Thistle, Bald Eagle, Common Loon
Archeological, Historical, and Cultural Features: None known.
Special Management Designations or Considerations: None
Watershed and Fisheries Considerations: This compartment straddles the Pigeon River and Sturgeon
River watersheds, and contains portions of the Little Sturgeon River, and all of Cochran and Roberts Lakes.
A 300-foot buffer should be kept adjacent to the Little Sturgeon River, and a standard 100-foot buffer should
be maintained around Cochran and Roberts Lakes.
Wildlife Habitat Considerations: This large compartment lies both SE and NE of Indian River and consists
mainly of upland habitat, with the exception of the swamp in the NW part of the compartment, the riparian
corridor in the SE part along a tributary of the Little Sturgeon river, and the surrounding areas around
Roberts and Cochran Lakes. Roberts and Cochran lakes have seasonal waterfowl use and eagles frequent the
area. Oak is a very important component of the habitat in the northern part of this compartment and all
treatments will have scattered large crowned oak left for hard mast production. Stands 11, 18, 42, 71, part of
83 and 99, 93, and 95 are going to be treated to maintain early successional habitat and encourage oak
reproduction. Stands 54 and 69 are going to be harvested and burned to encourage natural jack pine/oak
reproduction along with scattered oak/pine barren areas. This compartment receives a considerable amount
of hunting pressure due to its abundance of game species and its proximity to Indian River.
Mineral Resource and Development Concerns and/or Restrictions: Surface sediments consist of
lacustrine (lake) sand and dune sand. The glacial drift thickness varies between 50 and 200 feet. The
Devonian Traverse Group subcrops below the glacial drift. The Traverse is used for stone and cement
products. Gravel pits are located in Section 20 and there is potential on the uplands. Most of this
Compartment was recently leased. The nearest oil and gas production, the Antrim Shale gas play, is located 5
miles to the south. The Antrim Shale is absent in this area and there is no known oil and gas potential.
Vehicle Access: Access is good throughout the compartment.
Survey Needs: 4 of the proposed treatments bound private property. Some survey assistance may be
needed.
Recreational Facilities and Opportunities: This compartment has the Michigan Cross Country Cycle Trail
(MCCCT) running through section 30 and 31. There is a boating access site on Cochran Lake in section 21.
Fire Protection:

Natural Rivers
There are two Natural Rivers datasets which are derived from spatial buffers set from an established and
approved distance from the river centerlines. The Natural Rivers Zoning District is a 400 foot buffer for
most Natural Rivers. The Vegetative Buffer ranges from 25 to 100 feet. To view specific Zoning Districts
and Vegetative Buffers for each Natural River see the table located on the I:\Documentation\GDSE data
folder.
SCA
Archaeological
Site
An aquatic or terrestrial area of the State that contains physical remains of human occupation. These are
sites of cultural and historical significance that may occur upon terrestrial areas and Great Lakes
bottomlands. They include thousands of Native American settlements and burial sites, as well as French
and British outposts, nineteenth century logging camps, mines and homesteads. Beneath the waters of the
Great Lakes, there are shipwrecks and other remains documenting the maritime trade. Such sites may be
identified by Natural heritage data from the State Historic Preservation Office. Proposed treatments in this
compartment will be implemented in such a manner as to maintain the integrity of these sites. Due to the
sensitive nature of this information, no further detail about location is available.
SCA
Cold Water
Stream
A coldwater stream has temperature and dissolved oxygen conditions that allow naturally-reproduced or
stocked trout populations and those of other coldwater fish species (e.g., slimy sculpin) to persist from year
to year. Coldwater streams in Michigan typically provide these conditions due to substantial contributions of
groundwater to their stream flows. Such streams are established by Director's action and designated as
trout resources by Fisheries Order 210.
SCA
Concentrated
Recreation Area
Facilities that are designed and maintained for routine or heavy recreational use, including State Parks,
State Forest campgrounds, motorized and non-motorized trails, trailheads, staging areas and public access
sites.
SCA
Potential Old
Growth Areas
This category contains stands were identified for a broad range of reasons and were coded in the OI
database as stand condition 8 as potential old growth (POG). Approximately 310,000 acres have been
identified through the Operations Inventory (OI)/Compartment Review process. For stands in Year of Entry
2008 and forward, potential old growth is managed for the identified objective until it is: 1) vetted through
the Biodiversity Conservation Planning Process (BCPP) and given a specific designation and objective (as
an ERA, HCVA, or other type of SCA) and is released from the potential old growth designation; or 2) it is
released from the potential old growth designation via the Compartment Review process.
