Statewide Fuels Reduction Environmental Protection Plan
This Environmental Protection Plan (EPP) has been developed to fulfill Governor Newsom’s State of Emergency Proclamation (SOE) signed on March 1, 2025 seeking to expedite fuels reduction projects that protect communities and reduce severe risks of catastrophic wildfire.

It does so by identifying the protective measures that will be followed by projects that have received suspension from state permitting requirements under the SOE.
