Land Designations - Roadless

Wilderness, Roadless, Wild and Scenic River Data layers pulled from the Enterprise Data Warehouse for land designations: Wilderness - area designated as a National Wilderness in the National Wilderness Preservation System. Inventoried Roadless Areas - the 2001 Roadless Rule establishes prohibitions on road construction, road reconstruction, and timber harvesting on inventoried roadless areas on National Forest System lands by the following classifications: 1B = Inventoried Roadless Areas where road construction and reconstruction is not prohibited. Wild and Scenic Rivers - area designated as a National Wild, Scenic, or Recreational River within the National Wild and Scenic River System. The designations and definitions are: Wild (W) - Those rivers or sections of rivers that are free of impoundments and generally inaccessible except by trail, with watersheds or shorelines essentially primitive and waters unpolluted. Those represent vestiges of primitive America. Scenic (S) - Those rivers or sections of rivers that are free of impoundments, with shorelines or watersheds still largely primitive and shorelines largely undeveloped, but accessible in places by roads. Recreational (R) - Those rivers or sections of rivers that are readily accessible by road or railroad, that may have some development along their shorelines, and that may have undergone some impoundment or diversion in the past.
