What is a community forestry collection site?
Collection sites are designed to accept mountain pine beetle infested slash and wood as well as non-infested material. Material includes wood that has been removed from private property for the purposes of fire mitigation efforts, mountain pine beetle mitigation, or general forest improvement efforts. The collection sites have a minimum size of 1 acre, which allows for enough space for an air curtain burner (a highly efficient, clean burning device that burns wood and slash of all size), sorting piles for material that is dropped-off, and turn around space for cars and larger trucks. When material is dropped-off Boulder County employees will determine if it is infested material. If it is infested with mountain pine beetle it will be placed in the air curtain burner for immediate disposal. If the material is clean it will be sorted based on the log size and condition.
