Key Point #3: Hazardous Fuels Reduction
The Forest Service will work with State Foresters, other state and federal agencies, and local communities to identify both communities at risk and projects to reduce the potential for wildfire damage. Most projects will focus on the wildland/urban interface. Combined with projects already identified and analyzed through the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), these projects will be our critical program of work into the future. Early estimates predict a doubling of the size of our fuels program within the next three to five years.
