Meeting to decide where to spend money on North Shore forests
The Nevada/Placer County Resource Advisory Committee will meet Nov. 5 at the Placer County Water Agency (144 Ferguson Road, Auburn) beginning at 10am. The purpose of this meeting is to vote on which projects the RAC will recommend for funding.

These projects must benefit National Forest System land in either Placer or Nevada county and can include: improving the maintenance of existing infrastructure; enhance forest ecosystems; restore and improve land health and water quality; road, trail and infrastructure maintenance or obliteration; soil productivity improvement; improvements in forest ecosystem health; watershed restoration and maintenance; control of noxious or exotic weeds; restoration, maintenance, and improvement of fish and wildlife habitat and the re-establishment of native species.
