North Tahoe Fire FAC Coordination and Planning Capacity Support

The project provides three years of funding to support NTFPD in improving it's Fire Adapted Communities program and in planning for fuels reduction and forest health treatments necessary in restoring and maintaining fire resilient landscapes. The project allows for a full-time primary support person for Fire Adapted Communities, it provides improvements in transportation for defensible space inspections, and it provides for training to support fuels management and Fire Adapted Communities. The project also provides funding to cover cultural and environmental surveys that are needed in planning high priority fuels reduction and forest health projects within the jurisdiction of NTFPD.
