Will contractors remove those huge piles of debris left when they thin forrests?
Hello Ivana…I would need more information about the location of the piles you are referring to before providing an accurate answer. Sometime, piles are created in preparation for a prescribed burn, which would be conducted at a later time once the materials have dried out and the conditions are right. However, if you let me know which are of Lake Tahoe you are referring to, I may be able to provide more details. Feel free to contact me directly at [email protected]
The forecast deviates from a mild 2016 fire season and comes on the heels of an especially wet winter.
