Placerville, California – May 24, 2023 – The Eldorado National Forest will hold two virtual public scoping meetings on Wednesday, May 31, 2023, to present and discuss the proposal for the future of the Caldor Fire Restoration Project.
The Caldor Fire Restoration Project includes activities on National Forest System lands that were impacted by the Caldor Fire within the Eldorado National Forest, including locations where roads and fuel treatments may extend outside the fire perimeter to adjacent communities. The Forest Service seeks to restore a healthy ecosystem that is resilient to future wildfires. Proposed treatments include mechanical fuel reduction, prescribed burning, reforestation, salvage harvest, watershed restoration, and repair of infrastructure such as roads and recreation sites damaged by fire.
A project website has been created for the public to access that will provide more information regarding the project. The comment period for this project is from May 17, 2023, to June 16, 2023, and comments can be sent to comments-pacificsouthwest-eldorado@usda.gov.
The meeting to present and discuss the proposal will be held online through two virtual Zoom public scooping meetings.
