The U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Allegheny National Forest is initiating an environmental analysis of the Pleasant Project, located in Brokenstraw, Conewango, Mead, Pleasant, and Watson Townships, Warren County.

Bradford District Ranger Rich Hatfield said, “In response to conditions within the Pleasant project area, the Forest Service is proposing a series of actions to bring the project area into better balance with goals and objectives identified in the ANF Land and Resource Management Plan (Forest Plan).”

Within the project area, proposed actions include: improvements to forest health through tree harvesting and reforestation; oak restoration; prescribed fire; treatment of non-native invasive plants; wildlife habitat improvements; and aquatic habitat and stream improvements. Transportation actions include adding roads to the Forest Service transportation system, road management changes, and improvements to existing roads.
