Social and Ecological Resiliency Across the Landscape (SERAL)The SERAL project aims to enhance forest resilience and reduce wildfire risk across approximately 118,000 acres in Tuolumne County by implementing fuel reduction treatments on both public and private lands within the Tuolumne and Stanislaus River Watersheds. Contractors will employ a suite of techniques including mechanical thinning, mastication, hand crews, chipping, prescribed fire, and biomass utilization, supplemented by reforestation where necessary, to restore vegetation to its natural range of variation. Work will occur simultaneously across multiple designated areas over a five-year period, with each zone adhering to tailored best management practices that consider local ecological conditions. Prior to any activity, comprehensive biological and cultural resource surveys will be conducted, and sensitive areas such as streams and wetlands will be clearly marked for avoidance to protect environmental integrity. While some treatment zones may be visible from public roads, there are no designated scenic highways in the county, minimizing visual impact concerns. The overarching goal is to reduce hazardous fuel loads and promote forest structures better adapted to natural disturbance regimes, thereby increasing resilience to wildfires, insect outbreaks, disease, drought, and climate change impacts. The project is administered by Tuolumne County with primary contact information provided by the Senior Management Analyst for Forest Health Project, and the initiative is forecasted to be active beginning in July 2026.

Pepperwood Beneficial Fuel Break and Work Force TrainingThe Pepperwood Foundation will undertake a comprehensive fuels reduction and prescribed fire program across 1,509 acres of the Pepperwood Preserve along its ridgeline, aiming to enhance ecosystem resilience and reduce wildfire risk through a combination of conservation grazing, forest thinning, pile burning, grassland burning, native grass propagation, and ecological restoration. These activities are designed to promote healthy forest and grassland conditions while minimizing hazardous fuel loads. Complementing the land treatments, the project will build long-term workforce capacity by delivering hands-on training workshops, supervised field-based learning, and collaborative experiences in partnership with Conservation Corps North Bay and regional experts, fostering skilled professionals in land management and fire ecology. The initiative is funded by the California State Coastal Conservancy and will be implemented in Santa Rosa, California, with Sara Haugen serving as the primary point of contact for project coordination.

Protecting Highway 108s Communities, Economies, and Watersheds (SNC1837)The Sierra Nevada Conservancy is amending grant agreement #1837 with Tuolumne County to provide additional funding for the implementation of approximately 60 additional acres of fuelbreaks along Highway 108 in eastern Tuolumne County. This expansion builds on an existing effort to create between 339 and 594 acres of fuelbreaks in partnership with the Stanislaus National Forest, aiming to safeguard communities, critical infrastructure, and watersheds from the threat of catastrophic wildfires. The treatments will involve a combination of mechanical mastication, hand-thinning, and pruning to reduce ground and ladder fuels up to 12 inches in diameter, improving access for fire suppression and interrupting fire spread. These fuelbreaks serve not only as immediate protective measures but also as strategic anchor points for broader, long-term forest management initiatives. The project is aligned with the Social and Ecological Resilience Across the Landscape (SERAL) 2.0 plan, a collaborative landscape-level strategy developed by the Stanislaus National Forest and Yosemite Stanislaus Solutions to enhance ecological resilience and community safety across the region.
