Document Description
The Los Angeles County Fire Department has identified a 350-acre parcel of land owned by the City of Industry, located south of Diamond Bar, that will undergo treatment. This plan aims to protect Diamond Ridge and Country Estates by enhancing defensible space by creating and maintaining a fuel break, along with implementing fuel modification actions. The plan will employ prescribed fire techniques, such as broadcast and pile burning, to support the governor's emergency proclamation to reduce hazardous fuels around communities within the Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone (VHFHSZ).
