January 25, 2024 - CAL FIRE officials report on the latest edition of our Grants at Work video series, we are highlighting this wildfire prevention project in Glenn County.

Glenn County Resource Conservation District received a CAL FIRE Wildfire Prevention grant to carry out fuel reduction projects along the Sacramento River. In coordination with the Sacramento National Wildlife Refuge

Complex and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the Sacramento River Corridor Hazardous Fuels Reduction Project provided treatment to overgrown vegetation within the Sacramento River Corridor by establishing fuel breaks along existing roads, trails, public access areas, structures, and property boundaries.

This project not only helps to reduce the threat of wildfire in this area, but it also helps to enhance this area’s important natural habitats while bolstering flood capacity.
