These include forest fuel reduction and fire resilience in areas surrounding the airport, and habitat modification to reduce the likelihood of wildlife/aircraft collisions. All efforts are supported for regulatory compliance through a contract Registered Professional Forester and a contract Wildlife Biologist. Project completed on November 19, 2021.
