At times when the equipment needed to control an emergency incident exceeds the resources of the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection CAL FIRE , the department hires the equipment and services of the private sector to supplement its own resources. In so doing, CAL FIRE attempts to obtain those resources that exactly meet the resource needs of the Incident Commander, at a price that is fair to the contractor and which represents a prudent expenditure of state taxpayer funds.
These policies, procedures, and rates are not laws or regulations, although in some cases they reflect the requirements of applicable laws and regulations. The intent of these guidelines is to maintain fair business practices and distribute assignments with as many vendors as possible while being fiscally responsible with state taxpayer funds.
CAL FIRE incident commanders determine what equipment is needed to support an incident logistically and operationally to accomplish incident objectives. Vendors are not participants in the processes in determining incident equipment or personnel needs.

Pine Grove, CA Oroville, CA The discussions would be recorded and available so that the public and workers on the projects could understand how the decision was made. The court found that all timber harvesting projects cause harm to the MSO, which constitutes legal harm to these plaintiffs under ESA.
But how could the court find that, when it is unlikely to be true? I know this is simple-minded but it seems very confusing to me. I have to assume that this will actually be limited to places where there is or was owl habit. Otherwise ESA would not apply. There are a lot of parallels to the Columbia River salmon and steelhead listings where consultation on forests plans had to be reinitiated for new species. Maybe the actual agreement will be public and we can figure out exactly what they agree to?
I wonder how we might get access? In as Forest Service employee I moved from an Oregon national forest to the Carson National Forest in northern New Mexico, where I was recruited in part because of my skills in mapping critical habitat for the Northern Spotted Owl as well as determining this species actual presence.
After examination it became apparent this determination was based pretty much on topography. Local Native American Tribes had no knowledge of this species over a thousand years of their habitation.
Meanwhile, because of restrictions to what little timber harvesting that there was in the area, the few mills closed, people lost jobs, local rural economies collapsed. Wonder about lack of interest on the Forest Service part to monitor? But maybe they wanted to score some political points at the expense of some locals ….
Haber, the reality is that, upon an injunction being filed, those affected do not have the ability to make decisions of what the judge meant, nor what the injunction meant. Fuel wood gathering is indeed a forest management practice. Had USFS not followed the injunction precisely, they could have, and probably would have, been held in contempt of the court order. If WildEarth Guardians had wanted fuel wood collecting to continue, it should have been included in their appeal to the Judge.
