Piute Fire Roadside Hazard Tree Removal Project
As a result of the Piute Fire, many trees along roads used by the public, Forest Service personnel, and Forest Service contractors were damaged or killed and could fall into the roadway, posing a safety and access risk. The Kern River Ranger District proposes to use a commercial timber sale to remove hazard trees for safety purposes along approximately 32 miles of roads affected by the 2008 Piute Fire and along roads necessary for access during this project.
