Forest Restoration Program
Implement Prescribed Fire
The Kingswood forestry project involved the cutting of trees that were marked under the guidance of a RPF for forest health and fuel reduction efforts. The project was implemented by hand crews cutting designated trees and brush. The project was split into two phases, the first being the cutting of designated trees and brush and the second being the burning of the piles. The project is located in the north shore of Lake Tahoe and was 10 acres in size.
