The work in general consists of: Removal of brush and trimming of trees within 10 to 12 feet of the roadways and in the County right-of-way (ROW). No removal of trees is required, only trimming. All removed vegetation will be chipped and left in place. No excavation is proposed. This project will create fuel breaks along County roadways, reduce fire spread to structures and/or natural resources, allow access for fire-fighting equipment, and to provide safe evacuation routes for residents. This project includes 14 road segments serving a total of seven at-risk communities. The 14 road segments proposed for fuel reduction include the following: Baker Road (from Garden Valley to end), Youngs Hill Road (Entire Length), La Porte Road (Woodleaf Tunnel Road to Oregon Hill Road), La Porte Road (Scale Road to Barton Hill Road), Marysville Road (Moonshine Road to SR 49), Frenchtown Dobbins Road (Entire Length), Frenchtown Road (Willow Glen Road to Frenchtown-Dobbins Road), Oregon Hill Road (Marysville Road to Moran Road), Mountain House Road (Cleveland Avenue to County Line), Challenge Cutoff Road (County line to La Porte Road), Indiana Ranch Road (Indy New York Road to Forsythe Road), Indiana School Road (Indiana Ranch Road to Marysville Road), Pendola Road (Garden Valley Road to Old Camptonville Road), and Cleveland Avenue (SR 49 to Mountain House Road). Other such items or details not mentioned above that are required by the plans, Standard Specifications, or these Special Provisions, and as directed by the Engineer, shall be performed, placed, constructed or installed.
