Middle Yuba Watershed Forest Projects

The Middle Yuba River watershed (~134,500 acres) sits between two active forest-health planning efforts: the North Yuba Forest Partnership to the north and Nevada County’s community wildfire planning to the south. This map consolidates project data from multiple partners to show where existing and planned treatments have occurred — and where the planning gap remains.

Layers include the North Yuba Forest Partnership ROD 2 final treatment units and ROD 3 footprint; Tahoe National Forest South Yuba fuels projects (Bear Trap, Cruzonville, Gastonville, Highway 20, Washington, WNCCDP/Deer Creek, and the South Yuba Roadside Fuelbreaks); YWI landscape resilience projects (‘Inimim Forest, Round Mountain, Little Deer Creek, and South Yuba Rim); Nevada Irrigation District (NID) restoration projects; Yuba Water Agency fuels treatment; regional and county agency projects; and public and protected land ownership from CAL FIRE FRAP. All layers can be toggled on and off; click any feature for details.
