LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – The Upper Lake Ranger District is offering an opportunity for the public to participate in the environmental analysis process for the proposed Deer Valley meadow enhancement project.

The 45-acre project area is north of the community of Upper Lake near the Deer Valley Campground in Lake County.

The project aims to enhance the meadow at Deer Valley by eliminating the failed check dams, repairing the fence damaged by the Ranch fire, cutting down conifers that have encroached on the meadow, planting willows to stabilize stream banks and prescribed burning.

Forest officials request that interested individuals submit their comments by Friday, Sept. 10.

Details are available here.
