$117 million to reduce wildfire risk on the North Yuba Landscape

Recently, the Tahoe National Forest announced their on-going partnership with National Forest Foundation providing $117 million dollars to begin working to reduce wildfire risk on the North Yuba landscape. This funding will support the North Yuba Landscape Resilience Project which was developed through the North Yuba Forest Partnership – a partnership of which SYRCL was a founding member.

This year’s lack of precipitation has already led to multiple red flag warnings in our area as well as the surrounding areas. Officials are particularly concerned about fires in and around the South Yuba River corridor due to the remote location and limited cellular communication available. Both of these factors could result in a small fire growing to become a significant and devastating incident.
