Emergency Forest Restoration Teams (EFRT)

 EFRT Lessons Learned Report

In response to the increasing scale and severity of wildfire impacts to California forests, the 2021 California Wildfire and Forest Resilience Action Plan recommended the formation of Emergency Forest Restoration Teams (EFRTs) to provide forest restoration assistance to small private landowners. The University of California Cooperative Extension carried out an assessment of the EFRTs with funding from the U.S. Forest Service State, Private and Tribal Forestry, Region 5 as part of a funded post-fire forest resilience outreach and education program.
