Fire-Safe Forests and Homes
Cost-share program


Are  you concerned about keeping yourself and your family safe from wildfire? The Mattole Restoration Council has a new program to help landowners clear limbs, brush, and dense stands of trees. If you live in the Mattole, the council can pay you up to $800 per acre to make your land less flammable.

MRC staff are waiting to talk you. Call Andrew at 629-3514 or email  him  at andrew<at>mattole<dot>org.

For a letter introducing the program to landowners and residents, click here.

For details about how the program works and how to participate, click here.

For the sample letter of agreement between the MRC and participants in the cost-share program, click here.

The tax man requires us to report payments of $600 or more to IRS and to collect this form from participants.
