Document Description
The Yuba County Department of Public Works is requesting $144,000 in funding from the Sierra Nevada Conservancy's Proposition 84 Healthy Forests Grant Program for fuel reduction treatment along 14.4 miles of roadway. This project includes fuel reduction (hand cutting and chipping vegetation) within County Road right of way along 6.8 miles of La Porte Road from Bean Clipper Road to Strawberry Valley, 3.6 miles of Pendola Extension Road, and all 4.0 miles of Weeds Point Road. The proposed of the fuel reduction is to create a shaded fuel break within the existing road easement. This will provide for greater safety during a fire for the community evacuation and improve fire prevention to protect the Yuba River watersheds.
