Spanish Flat Fuel Reduction Project

The overall objectives the project is to return forests and wildlands to a more natural, fire resilient condition and to ensure that the exposure of human assets and communities to wildfire risk has been reduced. The Project area and surrounding communities have been identified as a Wildland Urban Interface (WUI) defense zone where the focus is on protecting life and property. The proposed Project will continue efforts to modify forest conditions to reduce fuel loads and prepare forests for long-term stewardship through practices such as mechanical and hand treatments and prescribed fire.
