The Alaska Department of Natural Resources received a $200,000 Project Grant award from the US Department of Agriculture Forest Service to support the State & Private Forestry Hazardous Fuel Reduction Program. The grant will fund the NON-FED HAZARD FUELS REDUCTION PROJECT from July 2021 through June 2026.
The project aims to reduce hazardous fuels volumes on Alaska's forests, woodlands, shrublands, and grasslands to decrease wildfire risks and mitigate long-term damage to natural resources. Specifically, the funding will support fuels reduction activities to make Alaska's lands less prone to large, destructive wildfires over the award period. The State & Private Forestry Hazardous Fuel Reduction Program focuses on this goal of lessening undesired wildfire impacts through strategic fuels management.
