Chalk Creek Targeted for Wildfire Mitigation

Nearly 400 landowners in and near the Chalk Creek drainage area are the focus of the Envision Forest Health Council’s Chaffee Chips service this month.   

Chaffee Chips coordinates slash removal and chipping services to reduce wildfire threat.  Homeowners are asked to clear and pile slash, trees and branches near their curbs in preparation for a three-day slash haul away event.   

Chalk Creek is a top treatment priority area in the Chaffee County Community Wildfire Protection Plan.   

A Zoom information session takes place on Wednesday, August 12 from 6 to 7 pm, when service partners will explain how to participate and answer questions.
