The Uhl Pocket project, managed by the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CAL FIRE), involves hazardous fuel reduction across 103 acres and recurring maintenance of the Uhl Pocket Fire Control Road in Tulare County, California.

The project is consistent with the Tulare County Wildfire Protection Plan and the CAL FIRE Tulare Unit Fire Plan, and it has been granted categorical exemptions under CEQA Class 1 and Class 4. Road maintenance activities are limited to the existing road prism and include grading, filling ruts, repairing and cleaning water drainage facilities, and removing obstructions such as fallen trees and rocks. Fuel reduction efforts will be conducted within a 100 foot buffer on the north side of the road and from the upslope edge to the prevailing ridge line on the south side, spanning approximately 75 to 200 feet. These treatment activities include mastication, limbing, brush cutting, piling, and the subsequent burning of piles.
