North Yuba Forest Partnership News: Tahoe National Forest Issues the Record of Decision for its North Yuba Landscape Resilience Project

On July 12, 2023, Tahoe National Forest issued the record of decision (ROD) for its North Yuba Landscape Resilience Project. The Forest Service and partners will now begin implementing the 275,000-acre vegetation and fuels management project in the North Yuba watershed over the next 15 to 20 years. The project aims to improve forest health, protect communities, and reduce the risk of catastrophic wildfire within the project area.
