  Wildfire is an increasing risk in our region. Climate change, longer fire seasons, higher fuel loads and shrinking resources for firefighters all make a catastrophic fire much more likely. It is up to ordinary citizens to be more responsible to prevent fires as well as initiating plans and rehearsing for a fire emergency. This pamphlet is intended to initiate evacuation planning in case of a catastrophic wildfire.

Kelsey Fuels Reduction Project

The Georgetown Fire Safe Council (FSC) has acquired a grant from the California State Fire Safe Council to conduct roadside fuel treatments along Shoo Fly Road. The goal is to create a shaded fuel break along the 3.5 +/- mile length of Shoo Fly Road approximately 40’ +/- wide on each side of the road. The RCD is administering the Project on behalf of the FSC.
