A U.S. Forest Service representative told supervisors the district completed broadcast and understory burns, is preparing timber sale markings and fuel‑reduction contracts, and is shifting to pile burning as rainy weather arrives; seasonal road‑gate closures and storm patrols are planned.

Roy Jones of the U.S. Forest Service told the Trinity County Board that crews have completed roughly 60 acres of fuels reduction so far, with about 800 acres planned, NEPA was signed for the South Fork Mountain fuelbreak and partners including AmeriCorps and CAL FIRE are supporting work; he asked for county participation on a Resource Advisory Committee.

An acting U.S. Forest Service representative told the Trinity County Board of Supervisors on May 5 the agency is staffing for summer fire season, advancing multiple community risk‑reduction projects and preparing several small timber sales and prescribed‑burn trainings. Some project timelines remain weather‑ or permitting‑dependent.
