The Sierra Nevada Conservancy (SNC) awarded SCFSC $608,000 to construct a shaded fuel break along Bullskin Ridge, located near the community of Oak Run in Shasta County. The purpose of this project is to create a fuel break that would improve fire safety for the community of Oak Run and beyond, as well as protect mature timberlands and the Oak Run Creek Watershed. We appreciate SNC’s commitment to keeping or communities safe from wildfire and promoting healthy forests.
