excessive fuel buildup. What is being done about it?
Many of Oregon’s federal forestlands are unhealthy due to insect and disease damage, overly dense tree stands and unchecked brush growth. Under the National Fire Plan, the federal resource agencies are actively treating their lands to improve forest health and lower fire danger. The Department of Forestry is administering National Fire Plan grants to assist rural communities and individual landowners to reduce the hazards posed by wildfire.
