CAL FIRE Close-Out Tour:
We are pleased to report that our tour with Nico Alegria, CAL FIRE Regional Forester, went very well. Nico had a positive response to the work we have completed and appreciated the opportunity to meet our collaboration and see firsthand the environment we are working in. During the tour, we covered many of the project areas, and it was a valuable opportunity to showcase the progress we’ve made. We are grateful for CAL FIRE’s continued support. Please see below for some photos from the tour. Thanks to Santa Clara County Parks, Auten Resource Consulting, and Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District for attending.
