Document Description
The Central Marin Fire Department has collaborated with the Ross Valley Fire Department, Kentfield Fire Protection District, and Marin County Fire Department, and has proposed a Marin Wildfire Prevention Authority (MWPA) Core Project, referred to as the Greater Ross Valley Shaded Fuel Break (GRVSFB) project. The goal of the GRVSFB project is to create and maintain a continuous reduced-fuel and forest-health-restoration zone around the communities in Central Marin. The proposed project would involve conducting vegetation management activities to create an approximately 38-mile-long continuous shaded fuel break within a 1,379-acre area. Wildland Urban Interface (WUI) fuel reduction areas up to 497 acres adjacent to the fuel break may also be treated.
