The Ark Valley Fire Mitigation and Forestry chipping crew will be in Beaver Lakes October 3rd and 4th. This is a great opportunity to protect your buildings and the forest from fire. Please take the time to read the fire mitigation information on the BLE Website. This may help save your home.
The cost for the crew and chipper is $150 per hour with an estimated cost of $75 per participant. (Renting a chipper is about $400 if you DIY.)
Here is all you need to do:
Contact Tim Ratterman (Tim.Ratterman.BLE@gmail.com) to get on the list of lots for chipping.
He will provide the forest service with a list of addresses and will bill you based upon the amount of time the crew reports they spent at your lot.
Build piles next to the road with all the butt ends facing one way. This helps speed up the chipping. Do not include root balls. They can contain rocks that will damage the chipper. In addition to dead trees include green trees and branches that have been cut away from the perimeter of your buildings. Do not include any trees with a trunk diameter over 6”. That should be used for firewood. Sage can be included.
Homeowners do not need to be home to participate. The crew appreciates the help if you are able.
