The County of Yuba is soliciting proposals from qualified, professional consulting firms to undertake a Biological Resource Report and/or, dependent on the project budget, the preparation of the entire Environmental Assessment under NEPA for a roadside fuel reduction project that will address 45.7 centerline miles of rural roads in the forested portions of the Sierra foothills of Yuba County. This project includes 18 road segments serving a total of seven at-risk communities. The 18 road segments proposed for fuel reduction include the following: Baker Road (from Garden Valley to end), Youngs Hill Road (Entire Length), La Porte Road (Woodleaf Tunnel Road to Oregon Hill Road), La Porte Road (Scale Road to Barton Hill Road), Marysville Road (Moonshine Road to SR 49), Frenchtown Dobbins Road (Entire Length), Frenchtown Road (Willow Glen Road to Frenchtown-Dobbins Road), Oregon Hill Road (Marysville Road to Moran Road), Mountain House Road (Cleveland Avenue to County Line), Challenge Cutoff Road (County line to La Porte Road), Indiana Ranch Road Indy New York Road to Forsythe Road), Indiana School Road (Indiana Ranch Road to Marysville Road), Pendola Road (Garden Valley Road to Old Camptonville Road), and Cleveland Avenue (SR 49 to Mountain House Road). The County of Yuba is requesting Community Development Block Grant Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR) funds to undertake a project known as the County of Yuba Roadside Fuel Reduction Project. During the Project period of approx. 10/1/2022 through 10/31/2024, the County will utilize CDBG Program - 2017 DR-Infrastructure funds for the proposed roadside fuel reduction project. The goals of the project are to create fuel breaks along County roadways, reduce fire spread to structures and/or natural resources, allow access for fire-fighting equipment, and to provide safe evacuation routes for residents. Currently, trees on either side of the roads encroach to the point where the canopies extend over the roads and vegetation encroaches up to the edge of the roadways, allowing fires to cross the roadways easily while also impeding ingress and egress to at-risk communities. This project would also benefit the potable water systems in Brownsville and Camptonville, and would help protect and preserve access to the airport adjacent to La Porte Road in Brownsville. This roadside fuel reduction project will benefit the residents of hundreds of habitable structures. The method of Contractor Selection has not been Determined at this time.
