The project will advance planning of a multi-phased fuel reduction project identified as a priority project in the Humboldt County CWPP and other fuel reduction treatments along and adjacent to the crest of Mail Ridge, a prominent geographic feature in southern Humboldt and northern Mendocino Counties. The purpose of the project is to increase fire resiliency, protect nearby communities from fire risk, and make significant progress toward restoration of the traditional role of low intensity fire on the landscape.

General Information

Project Description Narrative (1,000 character limit)
The intent of the project is to advance the timeline for implementation of the portion of the Mail Ridge project within Fruitland Ridge Volunteer Fire Protection District (FRVFPD) response area by coordinating with the Mail Ridge Project Team to assist with project scoping and environmental compliance. Our aim is to secure technical assistance in identifying data gaps or needs for technical studies, such as air quality studies, cultural resources surveys, biological assessments, geotechnical reports, traffic impact reports, visual impact analyses, noise studies, and hydrological studies. Additionally, we would like technical assistance with conducting a preliminary cultural resource records search, including reviewing and studying records; maps; pertinent ethnographic, archaeological, and historical literature specific to Mail Ridge so that cultural resource impacts can be avoided, meeting CalVTP Standard Project Requirement: CUL-3 Pre-field Research.
