East Fork Scott River Forest Health Implementation Project

Solicitation # 2025-47-065

The East Fork Scott River Forest Health Implementation Project, led by the Shasta Valley Resource Conservation District, focuses on improving forest health, enhancing climate resilience, and reducing wildfire risk in Siskiyou County, California. Located near the community of Callahan, the project involves hazardous fuels treatments across up to 348 acres, with some expanded estimates reaching 397 acres. The scope of work includes the creation of 186 acres of ridgeline shaded fuel breaks and 124 acres of shaded fuel breaks along Highway 3, as well as 38 acres of pile burning. These goals will be achieved through a combination of chipping, mastication, hand piling, pruning, and noncommercial thinning of dense conifer stands and brush to boost biodiversity and protect wildlife habitats, specifically around oak trees. The project is divided into three primary units: the Hayden Ridge unit, focusing on masticating small diameter pines; the Highway 3 unit, utilizing hand thinning and pile burning; and the Gazelle-Callahan Road unit, emphasizing hand thinning around existing oaks. Additionally, the project includes the removal of invasive plants, specifically Dyer's Woad, along roads to prevent spread into treatment areas. Compliance requires adherence to strict environmental protocols, including site-specific written burn plans, smoke management plans submitted to the Siskiyou County Air Pollution Control District, and the establishment of 50-foot no-treatment zones if endangered species are detected. The project has undergone environmental review under CEQA and NEPA, resulting in a Negative Declaration certifying no significant environmental effects.
