Small diameter green trees (<20""DBH) or hazard trees will be fallen . Biomass will be transported offsite and converted into electricity. The work is critical to meet the public safety and tree disposal needs stemming from widespread tree mortality in the southern Sierra Nevada. The project protects infrastructure and increases public safety by removing hazard trees and thinning fuels on critical corridors in High and Very High Severity Fire Hazard Zones. It also protects communities located within the Wildland Urban Interface, specifically Yosemite West and Wawona. This project also creates a fuel break in the event of wild land fire or if a prescribed fire is to be conducted. No work will be done within the bed , bank or channel of any existing drainage, or culturally sensitive sites within the project areas and sensitive biological resources will be flagged and avoided .",https://ceqanet.opr.ca.gov/2022040572/2,"Yosemite National Park, Wawona and Yosemite West Road Hazard Tree and Biomass Removal",Melinda Barrett,Mariposa County Resource Conservation District,Executive Director,MariposaCountyRCD@gmail.com,PO Box 2403,,Mariposa,CA,95338,5595800944,37°32'21.6"N 119°39'37.8"W,,Mariposa,Mariposa,Wawona Rd and Chilnahualna Falls Rd, 95389,"1,653",,CA 41,Merced River,,,,,,,,,,Statutory Exemption,"Section 4799.05(d)(1 ), Sec. 21080(b)(3); 15269(a)","The California Environmental Quality Act does not apply to prescribed fire, thinning, or fuel reduction projects undertaken on federal lands to reduce the risk of high-severity wildfire that have been reviewed under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) if the primary role of a state or local agency is providing funding or staffing for those projects.
