The Sierra Nevada Conservancy (SNC) will provide funding to Blue Forest Finance, LLC (a 501(c)(3)) to work with Plumas National Forest (PNF) and other partners to implement forest restoration work on approximately 2,000 acres on PNF lands as part of the larger PNF North Fork Forest Recovery Project. The purpose of the Project is to accelerate implementation of fuels management, wildfire risk reduction, and forest restoration activities within the Feather River watershed. Planned treatments include but are not limited to hand and mechanical thinning, hazard removal, pile burning, prescribed fire, site preparation and reforestation. All activities will be implemented consistent with the North Fork Forest Recovery Project Decision Notice and Finding of No Significant Impact signed on June 23, 2025, limited to approved locations, conditions, methods, design features, and protective measures. Details of these requirements are found in the North Fork Forest Recovery Project Final Environmental Assessment, including Appendices.
