This report addresses issues concerning the Class I angling water designation of the Zymoetz River. Attributes associated with the Zymoetz River's Class I angling water designation, conflicting resource values, and outstanding interagency issues are discussed. A zoning system for timber harvesting and road construction has been developed using terrain stability and surface erosion potential maps to guide planning in the MRPA west of Serb Creek. Finally, forestry practices in the sensitive terrain of the Upper Zymoetz River catchment are briefly discussed. This review should assist planners by providing comprehensive information needed to decide the future and nature of resource development in the Upper Zymoetz River catchment.
