. Effects of burning moist fuels on seedbed preparation in cutover western larch forests . logged in 1974. .Each block was further divided into four subblocks, in which four different standards of timber and residue utilization were employed (fig. 1). Of the four subblocks, only No. 1 and 2 were broadcast burned (fig. 2), and this study was limited to them. A description of the two utilization standards applied to the burned subblocks in each block follows: Subblock Trees Cut Utilization Standard All trees except designated overstory shelterwood trees All material (live and dead, standing and down) to 3 inch ( cm) dia., 8 foot ( m) length, and 1/3 sound removed, All trees except designated overstory shelterwood trees. Sawtimber material (live and recently dead) to 1974 Forest Service standards: 7 inch ( cm) , 8 foot ( m) length, and 1/3 sound removed. The timber type on the study area is larch--Douglas-fir (Cover Type 212, Society of American Foresters 1954). This type is composed primarily of western larch and Douglas-fir. Associated species include subalpine fir {Abies lasiocarpa [Hook.] Nutt.) 4
