Quesnel Community Wildfire Protection Plan – Wildfire Risk Reduction Treatments – Phase 2

Project Number: #WR0000607

This project is a continuation of another related FESBC-supported project and includes planning, prescription and treatment work focused on meeting City of Quesnel Community Wildfire Protection Plan priorities. These priorities were established jointly with BC Wildfire Service fuel management specialists and Quesnel Resource District staff. Activities may include planning and prescription development, harvesting, understory pruning and thinning, and forest floor fuel piling and burning. If feasible, the residual fibre resulting from the treatment will be utilized instead of burned.
