RMAC California Workshop Series Contract/Fee-for-Service Grazing for wildland fuels management

The Range Management Advisory Committee, an advisory body to the California State Board of Forestry and Fire Protection, has partnered with the California Fire Science Consortium to organize a statewide virtual workshop series on community-based wildland fuel management, with emphasis on contract grazing and the use of grazing animals for managing fine fuels. We would appreciate your assistance in spreading the word about this valuable tool! Please disseminate this information far and wide.

 The webinar will be conducted as a series of three, three-hour workshops from 10am-1pm Pacific Time on July 29^th, August 5^th, and August 12^th. The last hour will be devoted to conversation and discussion with the presenters. Please see below for a more detailed scheduled by date.

The August 12^th session will include two case studies like the previous sessions, followed by representatives from Ascent Environmental, who are assisting the Board of Forestry & Fire Protection in the development and funding of Project-Specific Analyses (PSAs) for Cal Vegetation Treatment Program (CalVTP) projects, and they will lead discussion on grazing as a covered activity under the CalVTP, funding for completion of PSAs, eligible projects, and the use of the CalVTP Programmatic Environmental Impact Report (PEIR) for CalVTP projects. That day will include the following speakers:

All speakers subject to change.
