The Environmental Committee works to protect the watershed and to educate the public on forestry issues, erosion control, hazardous waste, recycling, and other issues. We also monitor government policies and procedures.
PG&E is a high priority for the Environmental Committee due to its massive and destructive felling of trees to prevent wildfires when unsafe, unreliable, antiquated equipment is the fundamental cause of the fires. From working on legislation and a new Franchise Agreement for PG&E in the County to in-depth research and analysis to support work with agencies affecting PG&E and helping folks protect their trees from PG&E’s contractors, this keeps the group busy. We work with a State-wide Utility Wildfire Prevention Taskforce on these issues.
Your help is needed.

Due to circumstances beyond our control we are unable to accept
or process Styrofoam. We are currently facing long term challenges
with the permitting process and equipment issues.
Styrofoam at this time can be taken to the Ben Lomond Transfer station
and the Buena Vista landfill as refuse and is subject to a fee for disposal.
Please know that we are doing everything within our power move forward
with the program.
We thank you for your patience.
