This project lies entirely within Sequoia National Forest Lands on the Hume Lake Ranger District. The GBI is implementing this project under a Supplemental Project Agreement pursuant to a Master Stewardship Agreement between GBI and the US Forest Service.
This project consists of cutting and removal of live and dead trees up to 20 inches DBH in areas affected by high severity fire and drought, and Hazard Tree cutting along roads accessing the project units to
improve the health and resiliency of live trees to future drought and subsequent insect/disease outbreaks; reduce the risk of further loss of old-growth forest wildlife habitat to drought-related causes or subsequent wildfire; reduce excessive fuel load build-up resulting from fire-, drought- and insect-killed trees; and improve and maintain safe public and administrative access routes to the resources across the district.
