Info

Sonoma-Lake-Napa Unit Fire Management Plan 2005 The Judge Davis Canyon (Rx North-052-LNU) project was located in Lake County ten miles east of Clearlake in the Rocky Creek-Cache Creek Wilderness Study Area, which is managed by the BLM. Vegetation is primarily chemise and mixed chaparral and has historically been the site of periodic wildfires. Project objectives were to reduce fuel loading, improve wildlife habitat, and increase water yield. 2) Present Projects A possible project is in the planning stages in the Cow Mountain Area for prescribed burning called the Pyramid Ridge VMP. 3) Future Projects and Priority Rankings None are proposed at the time of publication. - 81 -

Battalion 1419 is the eastern edge of LNU, running the length of Colusa and Yolo Counties, with three single engine fire stations located near Leesville, Wilbur Springs, and Brooks. The battalion is very rural, with many large landowners. Highway 16, which runs from Highway 20 to Interstate 505, has had an above average number of fire ignitions in the area referred to as Rumsey Canyon. The largest CDF fire in the state last year started in Rumsey Canyon and burned south to Lake Berryessa being pushed by a North wind. 1) Past Projects CDF has been able to take advantage of the rural setting and large landowners to complete many prescribed burns over the years. Battalion Chief Jim Wright, and the previous battalion chief, Bill Klebe, have been very proactive in working with landowners and BLM to complete prescribed burns for a variety of purposes. The Yolo VMP (Rx North-057-LNU) was developed in conjunction with the National Audubon Society of California, Yolo County Resource Conservation District, and the BLM. The goal is to, over a three-year period starting in 2003, burn brush in the fall and winter along with the spring burning of non-native grassland species. 240 acres of non-native grasslands were successfully burned over three days in June of 2003, and 261 acres of brush were treated during the 2005 winter period. - 82 - §¨¦ 80 ® Map Created by M.
