Projects delivered on some of California's largest fires

Scope: Emergency hazard-tree mitigation and slope stabilization along power-line corridors impacted by the 2018 Carr Fire.

Challenge: A compressed emergency response window with utility clearance standards, agency inspection and unstable post-fire terrain.

Solution: Mechanical felling, log extraction and debris removal coordinated directly with PG&E and CAL FIRE safety inspectors.

Outcome: Completed within the response window with zero recordable incidents. All safety, environmental and utility-clearance standards were met or exceeded, restoring safe access for line crews and public agencies.

Scope: Post-fire hazard-tree removal and slope stabilization along the Feather River Canyon, including traffic-control coordination, debris management and BMP compliance.

Challenge: Restricted-access canyon terrain adjacent to an active highway and a protected river corridor.

Solution: Staged removals with traffic control, controlled debris handling and best management practices enforced at the water's edge.

Outcome: More than 200 hazard trees removed under restricted-access conditions with zero safety incidents and no debris entry into the Feather River.

Scope: Post-fire hazard-tree removal and vegetation clearing within high-risk utility corridors impacted by the LNU Lightning Complex Fire, including mechanical felling, chipping and biomass reduction along residential and agricultural interface zones.

Challenge: Work adjacent to occupied residential and agricultural property under utility audit requirements.

Solution: On-site material processing to minimize hauling, with sequenced access and landowner coordination.

Outcome: Completed ahead of schedule with zero incidents and full PG&E audit compliance. Improved access for restoration crews and minimized erosion through on-site material processing.

Scope: Removal and processing of fire-killed trees along PG&E utility corridors following the Fawn and Salt Fires, including mechanical felling, biomass reduction and site stabilization in steep, rocky terrain.

Challenge: Steep, rocky ground with burn-pile restrictions and high haul volumes.

Solution: Deployment of the Albach mobile chipper to process all woody debris on site, reducing haul volume and eliminating burn piles.

Outcome: [Outcome summary — editable placeholder pending final client documentation.]

Scope: Large-scale hazard-tree removal, biomass processing and transport of woody debris generated during the 2021 Dixie Fire recovery.

Challenge: High-volume material generation across a large burn footprint with landfill diversion goals.

Solution: Albach mobile chipper supported by a fleet of semi-trucks and walking-floor trailers hauling chip material to the Honey Lake Power co-generation plant.

Outcome: Completed safely and ahead of schedule with zero incidents. Delivered high-volume biomass to Honey Lake Power, supporting renewable-energy production and reducing landfill waste.

Scope: Post-fire hazard-tree removal and slope stabilization along Rock Creek Road and the Umpqua River Corridor, protecting riparian habitat near the Rock Creek Salmon Hatchery.

Challenge: Emergency-response timeline with continuous environmental monitoring beside sensitive salmon habitat.

Solution: Sequenced removals and stabilization with environmental monitors on site throughout the operation.

Outcome: Completed within an emergency-response window under continuous environmental monitoring, with zero environmental non-compliances.

Scope: Roadside vegetation management and hazard-tree mitigation along community ingress/egress routes to improve emergency access and reduce wildfire risk.

Challenge: Active public roadways with residents relying on the same routes during the work window.

Solution: Traffic-controlled corridor treatment with documented unit completion and agency coordination.

Outcome: Zero recordable incidents; completed with excellent compliance and safety performance.
