California Vegetation Treatment Program (CalVTP).  </div><div><br /></div><div><p>The CalVTP, developed by
the Board of Forestry and Fire Protection (Board), is a critical
component of the state’s multi-faceted strategy to address California’s
wildfire crisis. The CalVTP defines the vegetation treatment activities
and associated environmental protections to reduce the risk of loss of
lives and property, reduce fire suppression costs, restore ecosystems,
and protect natural resources as well as other assets at risk from
wildfire. The CalVTP supports the use of prescribed burning, mechanical
treatments, hand crews, herbicides, and prescribed herbivory as tools to
reduce hazardous vegetation around communities in the Wildland-Urban
Interface (WUI), to construct fuel breaks, and to restore healthy
ecological fire regimes.</p>
<p>The California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CAL FIRE)
has the primary responsibility for implementing proposed CalVTP
vegetation treatments, though many local, regional, and state agencies
could also employ the CalVTP to implement vegetation treatments if their
projects are within the scope of the CalVTP (see Final PEIR, Chapter 2,
Program Description). The CalVTP will allow CAL FIRE, along with other
agency partners, to expand their vegetation treatment activities to
treat up to approximately 250,000 acres per year, contributing to the
target of 500,000 annual acres of treatment on non-federal lands as
expressed in Executive Order (EO) B-52-18. </p><p>For more information,
