Here's a look at fuels reduction and fireline construction at Oregon's Bootleg Fire, currently the largest in the country. Feller bunchers and skidders are creating a fireline that can be held by fire and engine crews with pumps and hoselays, a process firefighters say is helping to increase containment. | Healthy Forests, Healthy Communities

Hazard Fuels Reduction Grants

#CaldorFire operations have included the use of everything from hotshot crews and hand crews, heavy equipment as well as aircraft. Heavy equipment is not limited to just fire engines or dozers, but also masticators. A powerful head attached to the arm of an excavator grinds trees and brush down to chips. They have been used on the #CaldorFire to reduce fuels and establish buffers that have helped lessen fire intensity in certain areas. When fire comes through an area with less fuel, firefighters

CAL FIRE uses many different methods to meet the state’s fuels reduction goals. One of the most versatile is the masticator. Capable of clearing a lot of brush, trees, and grass quickly, the masticator can operate in a variety of terrains. #FuelsReduction #ReadyforWildfire | CAL FIRE

The State of Alaska, Division of Forestry & Fire Protection manages a year-round hazardous fuel reduction program and is working on projects across the state, from Dillingham to Delta. Fuels reduction work aims to bolster community resilience to fire by removing enough vegetation (or fuel) in strategically placed areas so that when a wildfire burns, it is less severe and can be more easily managed. One of the more striking projects, the Sunset Fuel Break, is 6.2 miles long by 200 feet wide and s

Throughout the winter months, our firefighters work hard to remove dangerous fire fuel in strategic areas of Butte County to protect residents and property. We encourage homeowners to use this time of year when fire risk is low to work on their defensible space."
