<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">The reality is that there are multiple reasons for the severity of the devastation that has occurred. Forests that have extreme fuel loading due to decades
of fire suppression and limited mechanical harvesting to take the place of natural fire regimes; climate change resulting in drought leading to extremely low fuel moisture, high tree mortality and insect damage as well as unpredictable weather events; and
increasing amounts of wildland urban interface. This mix is a dangerous combination which results in severe risk for life, property and natural resources. All pieces of the system should be considered while we go through the process of risk reduction. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

what Bill and Denise have shared as truth. The fact is fire has been suppressed in these forest for decades and now we are all paying the price. These forest must be thinned to save them and the wildlife and people that live near them. Don't throw the forest
out with the fires. If anyone would like a tour I am more than willing to take you and show you where the fires have burnt and reburning at a hotter temp. Please get out of the office and go out on the land and see for yourself. Nadine<o:p></o:p></span></p>
