THE PURPOSE OF THE SHADED FUEL BREAK PROJECT ON RECLAMATION LANDS IS TO RESTORE AND MAINTAIN A FIRE-ADAPTED ECOSYSTEM BY THINNING DENSE VEGETATION AND REMOVING DEAD AND DYING FUELS THAT CAN SUPPORT INTENSE FIRE BEHAVIOR WITH PRESCRIBED SHADED FUEL BREAK TREATMENTS. A SHADED FUEL BREAK CAN GREATLY REDUCE THE INTENSITY OF A WILDLAND FIRE, PREVENT FIRES FROM REACHING TREE CANOPIES, AND PROVIDE THE FIRE DEPARTMENTS AND OTHER RESPONDING AGENCIES WITH A DEFENSIBLE POINT TO FIGHT WILDLAND FIRES AND PROTECT HOMES AND INFRASTRUCTURE. BY REDUCING THE WILDFIRE INTENSITY FACTOR, THE POTENTIAL FOR ECOSYSTEM/HABITAT DESTRUCTION AND IMPACTS TO WATER QUALITY ARE GREATLY REDUCED.2.ACTIVITIES TO BE PERFORMED:CREWS WILL CONTINUE OVER A FIVE-YEAR PERIOD TO PERFORM WORK IN FIRE PREVENTION TECHNIQUES, FUELS MANAGEMENT, RESOURCE PROTECTION, PROJECT MANAGEMENT, SAFETY, AND EQUIPMENT OPERATION. TYPES OF WORK TO BE PERFORMED INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO: PRUNE AND CHIP TREE LIMBS UP TO 10 FEET FROM GROUND SURFACE, CUT DOWN AND CHIP TREES LESS THAN 4 INCHES DIAMETER AT BREAST HEIGHT (DBH), CUT AND REMOVE OR CHIP BRUSH AND SHRUB VEGETATION, MOW OR WEED NON-WOODY VEGETATION, REMOVE AND DISPOSE.

THE PURPOSE OF THE PROJECT IS TO RE-ENGAGE HOMELESS VETERANS TO REACH THEIR FULL EMPLOYMENT POTENTIAL AND OBTAIN HIGH-QUALITY CAREER OUTCOMES FOR VETERANS EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS. THE SQUAD-BASED PROGRAM IS A UNIQUE STRATEGY TO ACHIEVE ECONOMIC PROSPERITY, ADDRESS HISTORICAL INEQUITIES, AND PROVIDE EQUITABLE ACCESS AND OUTCOMES TO MARGINALIZED GROUPS. THE GREAT LAKES CCC WILL CONDUCT FOUR CYCLES OF TRAINING, SERVING A TOTAL OF 24 HOMELESS VETERANS DURING THE FIRST YEAR OF THE GRANT PERIOD. APPROXIMATELY 20 OF THE TRAINING PARTICIPANTS ARE INITIALLY EXPECTED TO BE PLACED IN EMPLOYMENT. BASED ON THE NEEDS, BARRIERS AND INTERESTS OF THE PARTICIPANT, THE GREAT LAKES CCC VETERANS CORPS WILL DIRECTLY PROVIDE TRAINING, HANDS-ON EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING, INDUSTRY-RECOGNIZED CREDENTIALS, WORK EXPERIENCE AND EMPLOYER-BASED OJT APPRENTICESHIPS TO PROGRAM PARTICIPANTS TOWARD A GROWING SECTOR OF MIDDLE SKILLS JOBS IN AREAS OF DISASTER RELIEF, BUILDING TRADES, TRANSPORTATION AND AGRIBUSINESS. BECAUSE HVRP PARTICIPANTS ARE TYPICALLY NOT IN A POSITION TO COMPLETE LONG-TERM TRAINING, THE GREAT LAKES CCC VETERANS CORPS WILL EQUIP PARTICIPANTS WITH A SERIES OF SHORT- AND MID-TERM TRAINING FOR STACKABLE INDUSTRY CREDENTIALS TO MAKE THEM EMPLOYABLE. THE VETERANS CORPS WILL BE CREW-BASED PARTICIPANTS WILL OPERATE AND LEARN TOGETHER AS A TEAM TO EXPERIENTIALLY COMPLETE PUBLIC INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS, ACQUIRE MARKETABLE SKILLS, A WORK HISTORY, AND MAKE A DIFFERENCE THROUGH SERVICE IN THEIR COMMUNITY. AS VETERANS, PARTICIPANTS RECOGNIZE THAT TO ACCOMPLISH ANY MISSION AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL, ALL UNITS MIGHT HAVE DIFFERENT JOBS BUT HAVE THE SAME GOAL IN THE END. THE GREAT LAKES CCC WILL SERVE HOMELESS VETERANS AND VETERANS AT RISK OF HOMELESSNESS, PARTICULARLY VETERANS FROM HISTORICALLY MARGINALIZED COMMUNITIES. THE GREAT LAKES CCC WILL ENROLL 24 HOMELESS VETERANS OR VETERANS AT RISK OF HOMELESSNESS AND WILL PLACE 80 OF THE PARTICIPANTS INTO EMPLOYMENT AT AN AVERAGE HOURLY WAGE OF 12.98. APPROXIMATELY 61 OF THE VETERANS INITIALLY PLACED INTO EMPLOYMENT WILL CONTINUE TO BE EMPLOYED DURING THE SECOND QUARTER AFTER EXIT, AND MORE THAN ONE-HALF (50.6 ) WILL CONTINUE TO BE EMPLOYED DURING THE FOURTH QUARTER AFTER EXIT. THE GREAT LAKES CCC WILL PARTNER WITH THE HOMELESS ASSISTANCE LEADERSHIP ORGANIZATION (HALO) OF THE RACINE COUNTY COC, VETERANS OUTREACH OF WISCONSIN, CENTER FOR VETERANS ISSUES - SSVF PROGRAM, RACINE COUNTY VETERANS SERVICES, VETERANS HOUSING AND RECOVERY PROGRAM AT FAIRCHILD HALL, RACINE COUNTY WORKFORCE SOLUTIONS, KENOSHA RACINE DVOP, HUD VASH, RACINE VOCATIONAL MINISTRIES, VETERANS CLOSET, AND LEGAL ACTION.

1. AWARD PURPOSE:THE ABILITY TO PROVIDE FIRE PROTECTION TO THE COMMUNITIES LOCATED ADJACENT TO THE URBAN INTERFACE WITH THE WILDERNESS AS PER THE GENERAL PLAN/RESOURCES MANAGEMENT PLAN 2021. THE PURPOSE OF THE SHADED FUEL BREAK PROJECT ON RECLAMATION LANDS IS TO RESTORE AND MAINTAIN A FIRE-ADAPTED ECOSYSTEM BY THINNING DENSE VEGETATION AND REMOVING DEAD AND DYING FUELS THAT CAN SUPPORT INTENSE FIRE BEHAVIOR WITH PRESCRIBED SHADED FUEL BREAK TREATMENTS. A SHADED FUEL BREAK CAN GREATLY REDUCE THE INTENSITY OF A WILDLAND FIRE, PREVENT FIRES FROM REACHING TREE CANOPIES, AND PROVIDE THE FIRE DEPARTMENTS AND OTHER RESPONDING AGENCIES WITH A DEFENSIBLE POINT TO FIGHT WILDLAND FIRES AND PROTECT HOMES AND INFRASTRUCTURE. BY REDUCING THE WILDFIRE INTENSITY FACTOR, THE POTENTIAL FOR ECOSYSTEM/HABITAT DESTRUCTION AND IMPACTS TO WATER QUALITY ARE GREATLY REDUCED.2.ACTIVITIES TO BE PERFORMED:CREWS WILL CONTINUE OVER A FIVE-YEAR PERIOD TO PERFORM WORK IN FIRE PREVENTION TECHNIQUES, FUELS MANAGEMENT, RESOURCE PROTECTION, PROJECT MANAGEMENT, SAFETY, AND EQUIPMENT OPERATION. TYPES OF WORK TO BE PERFORMED INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO: PRUNE AND CHIP TREE LIMBS UP TO 10 FEET FROM GROUND SURFACE, CUT DOWN AND CHIP TREES LESS THAN 4 INCHES DIAMETER AT BREAST HEIGHT (DBH), CUT AND REMOVE OR CHIP BRUSH AND SHRUB VEGETATION, MOW OR WEED NON-WOODY VEGETATION, REMOVE AND DISPOSE. CALIFORNIA CONSERVATION CORPS CREWS WILL TREAT BETWEEN 24-28 ACRES.3.EXPECTED DELIVERABLES OR OUTCOMES:VEGETATION WILL BE REMOVED BY HAND, USING HAND SAWS, POLE SAWS, AND CHAINSAWS. CUT MATERIALS WILL BE HAULED, STACKED IN PILES, AND CHIPPED WITH A MECHANICAL CHIPPER. CHIPPED MATERIALS WILL BE SCATTERED WITHIN THE PROJECT AREA AND LEFT ON SITE FOR NATURAL DECOMPOSITION AND SOIL STABILITY ENHANCEMENT. ALTHOUGH THE PRESCRIPTION ALLOWS FOR PILE BURNING THIS PROJECT HAS BEEN PLANNED WITH THE CHIPPING COMPONENT TO 1) AVOID SMOKE ISSUES, 2) CREATE A MORE COMPLETE PROJECT BY CUTTING AND CHIPPING, AND 3) AVOID ADDITIONAL CREW TIME FOR PILE BURNING. BURNING MAY BE USED IN SOME CASES TO ELIMINATE INVASIVE PLANT SPECIES INSTEAD OF CHIPPING WHERE THE BROADCAST OF MATERIAL MAY EXPAND SUCH SPECIES. PROJECTS WILL BE PERFORMED BY CALIFORNIA CONSERVATION CREWS AND CREW LEADERS ON RECLAMATION LANDS ACCORDING TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS MCA AND THE PROJECT TASK AGREEMENT INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING:4.INTENDED BENEFICIARIES:THE BENEFIT OF THIS AGREEMENT WILL PROVIDE FOR RECLAMATION'S ABILITY TO PROVIDE FIRE PROTECTION TO THE COMMUNITIES LOCATED ADJACENT TO THE URBAN INTERFACE WITH THE WILDERNESS.BY REDUCING THE WILDFIRE INTENSITY FACTOR, THE POTENTIAL FOR ECOSYSTEM/HABITAT DESTRUCTION AND IMPACTS TO WATER QUALITY ARE GREATLY REDUCED.5.SUBRECIPIENT ACTIVITIES (IF KNOWN OR SPECIFIED AT TIME OF AWARD): N/A
