Fire Safe
HAMMOND RANCH FUEL REDUCTION AND EDUCATION GRANT
In APRIL 2019, CALFIRE approved and funded a Wildfire Protection Grant for the Hammond Ranch Fire District.
The grant project was prepared by the Hammond Ranch Fire Safe Council.
The grant will improve wildfire safety in 4 areas:
- Remove fuel along emergency evacuation roads
- Create a shaded fuel break at Dogwood Ridge
- Create 100-foot defensible space demonstration homes.
- Provide wildfire public education.
The grant will remove about 240-acres of wildfire fuel. A landowner must agree (in writing) to allow fuel reduction work on their private property.
Landowner Agreement Forms can be downloaded below.
The grant will require about 2100-hours of volunteer community service.
IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO PARTICIPATE IN THIS PROJECT, PLEASE SEND YOUR NAME, PHONE #, AND ADDRESS TO: hammondfiresafe@gmail.com
NOTE-YOU DO NOT NEED TO SEND AN EMAIL IF YOU ARE ALREADY RECEIVING EMAILS REGARDING THIS GRANT.
