The communities in California impacted by these fires have been on my mind this morning.
Of course no-one in the media is reporting the real problem behind these fires. So I decided to look into the Forest Management Issues in that area.
I think this project is in the area of the fire, https://www.fs.usda.gov/project/?project=41053
When you go to the link, it states the following,”Project cancelled due to issues with the planning process to date. See letter attached to this record.”
There was no letter attached, unless I missed it.
I scanned/read through the document above. It sounds as though they worked on this project since at least 2012, probably longer and then cancelled it after jumping through all the environMental hoops. My guess is a lawsuit was filed to stop the project. I have seen this on too many occasions.
These sue happy environMentalists have the blood of the lost souls from this fire on their hands. They are the reason the forests are a tinder box.
Of interest “The Feather River Ranger District has formed a new collaborative in an effort to provide a venue and opportunity for any interested or concerned citizen or stakeholder to be involved in the active and adaptive management of lands on the Feather River Ranger District.”
I have been trying to get the document of the Initial Meeting to download this morning, I am sure it would be enlightening. https://www.fs.usda.gov/detailfull/plumas/landmanagement/?cid=FSEPRD589058&width=full
