OCTOBER 23RD LAST DAY TO REQUEST DEFENSIBLE SPACE EVALUATIONS & CHIPPING SERVICES

The last day to request defensible space evaluations and chipping services for the 2022 season is October 23, 2022. To make your on-line request visit www.nltfpd.org.

To service all remaining requests for defensible space evaluations and chipping in a timely manner and prior to potential inclement weather approaching, the last day to request chipping and defensible space evaluations is Sunday, October 23, 2022. However, the Fire District will continue Defensible Space Evaluations for construction projects as weather permits. The October 23rd closing deadline will allow the Fire District time to complete the last requests for the 2022 season. 

For Chipping requests, please remember that the pile needs to be curbside and must not exceed 30 feet in length, 6 feet in height, and 6 feet in width. Branch diameter cannot exceed 6 inches, and no stumps, roots, garbage, nails or finished lumber.

To date, the Fire District has completed 900 defensible space evaluations and 300 chipping requests for the 2022 season.

The Fire District would like to thank everyone that has expressed an interest in learning about what they can do to make their homes more defendable from wildland fire and spending the necessary time to do the work around their homes. For more information visit www.tahoelivingwithfire.com
