Camp Josepho Hazardous Fuel Reduction Project

The project involves removal or trimming of approximately 147 trees that have been identified by certified arborists as being dead or dying or otherwise posing a health and safety risk to the public. The project consists of performing hazardous fuel reduction at Camp Josepho to bring this area back into compliance with the City’s brush clearance ordinance (Los Angeles Municipal Code Section 57.322) for owners of property within the Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone. The extent of the proposed tree trimming and/or removal would be encompassed within the approximately 15-acre developed portion of the camp. The project does not include the installation of new and/or revised access roads or paths; establishment of new or additional use areas; or the construction of any structure, feature, or facility.
