FireScape Mendocino Hosts Workshop
Fires and Fuels Management
FireScape Mendocino is inviting the public to a workshop
on Fires and Fuels Management to be held at the Granzella’s Inn Conference Room
in Williams, CA on Tuesday, November 19, 2019 from 9 am to 4 pm.
FireScape is a voluntary, inclusive and collaborative effort to shape the future of our fire-prone landscape in and near the Mendocino National Forest. Working
together, we emphasize shared learning, problem
solving and action on the
ground. Taking
the next steps in this effort:
- Hear and provide input to FireScape Core Team updates on goals and actions focused on grants, adaptation to a changed fire regime and climate; and recreation. Learn about $5-million in new grants to the Forest Service for restoration work.
- We will learn about the current status and goals of the Ranch Fire Recovery and the North Shore Recovery Project with general discussion and input.
· Discuss regional collaborative fire and fuels management with a special presentation on Prescribed Fire on Private Land: How does it work and how do we
collaborate to
make this happen here.
- Where is FireScape Mendocino going? What do you want in future workshops topics? What are next steps in project development and collaboration? Are there new grant opportunities? Bring your ideas and thoughts. Help us do the job.
- · Feedback is important. Please fill out the survey.
Participants will engage with a variety of collaborators.
Guided by the best practices of the North America Fire Learning Network, FireScape
Mendocino is designed to enable people with diverse perspectives to find zones of agreement where we can achieve
tangible results in our
communities and the surrounding
landscapes.
