Summary
Chief told the board about passthrough funding from the US Forest Service to NDF—about $6,000,000 earmarked for fuels projects in the shared stewardship zone—and cited roughly 120 acres of fuels treatments completed on Moore Summit.
The Chief told commissioners the US Forest Service had a significant passthrough to NDF that supported fuels work in the county, and that "there's about $6,000,000 allocated for work for fuels project in the shared stewardship zone." He said crews have completed "about 120 acres of fuels treatments on Moore Summit" and expect to finish additional project work in the coming month.
The Chief said the department is coordinating with partners such as Wells Rural and others to expand fuels reduction work across rural communities. He also attached a map of the shared stewardship boundaries to the report for commissioners' review.
