AI Contract Overview

The Community Protection Central and West Slope Project is a vegetation management initiative led by the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection covering approximately 217,721 acres within the Plumas National Forest.

Performance will take place within Plumas County, specifically across portions of the Beckworth, Feather River, and Mt. Hough Ranger Districts. Project activities consist of manual and mechanical vegetation treatments and the application of prescribed fire. Mechanical operations may utilize a wide range of equipment, including chainsaws, harvesters, forwarders, skid steers, excavators, dozers, loaders, chippers, masticators, and feller bunchers. Prescribed fire will be applied via ground ignition using drip torches or aerial ignition using helicopters and unmanned aerial vehicles. All work must be executed in strict accordance with the U.S. Forest Service Environmental Assessment, adhering to specific project design features, mitigation measures, and weather and fuel condition regulations.

Full Description

The Community Protection Central and West Slope Project is a U.S. Forest Service vegetation management project encompassing approximately 217,721 acres within the Plumas National Forest. CAL FIREs involvement is anticipated to include implementation of vegetation treatments and prescribed fire to support efforts to reduce wildfire risk to State Responsibility Area (SRA) communities and critical infrastructure, improve wildfire resilience in the wildland-urban interface (WUI) and support community protection and suppression efforts. Project activities include manual and mechanical treatments and prescribed fire. Equipment that could be used for treatments may include chainsaws, harvesters, forwarders, skid steers, excavators, dozers, loaders, tow chippers, tracked chippers, masticators, feller/bunchers, rubber-tired skidders, as well as tractor-trailer equipment transporters. Methods for applying fire would include ground ignition using a drip torch or similar method, aerial ignition using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) or helicopters, or a combination of both. Fire will only be used under specific weather and fuel conditions, and in accordance with regulations and notification outlined in the Environmental Assessment. Project implementation by CAL FIRE will be conducted in accordance with the U.S.F.S. Environmental Assessment and applicable project design features, mitigation measures, and approval conditions.
