Document Description
The project was funded by CAL FIRE to increase the pace and scale of prescribed burning throughout the state to improve fire resilience and forest/community health. The project will serve as an opportunity to empower private landowners with the knowledge and skills to use prescribed burning as a fuels management tool, decrease fuel continuity, and reduce the probability of catastrophic wildfire. The proposed project benefits private landowners, suppression resource, and the ecological integrity of the state's forestlands. A NOE under the Class 4 category for minor alterations to land is appropriate because the low intensity burning will have no negative effects on the land or natural resources. No historical or biological resources will be harmed.
