Controlled Burn Wastewater Treatment Plant 2025

The City of Shasta Lake is preparing to conduct a controlled burn at its Wastewater Treatment Plant to eliminate all one-hour fuels, aiming to reduce fire risk and enhance community safety. The operation is tied to broader fire fuel reduction efforts documented under SCH#2023070050, which provides the environmental and planning context for this activity. The project is scheduled for 2025 and is managed as a forecasted action with no formal solicitation yet issued, allowing for preparatory planning and stakeholder coordination. All work will take place at the plant located in Shasta Lake, California, with a zip code of 96019. Primary points of contact for the project are Peter Bird, Senior Planner, and Greg McIntosh, Fire Fuel Reduction Coordinator, who can be reached via email and phone for inquiries. The project’s official details and environmental analysis are accessible through the California Environmental Quality Act portal at the provided uiLink. While no specific contract award or set-aside information is available at this time, the initiative aligns with municipal efforts to mitigate wildfire threats through proactive land management practices in a region prone to fire conditions.
