Support a Re-forestation Program for the East Bay Hills. Extend public discussion of the FEMA fire protection plan until July 31, 2013.
Why is this important?
FEMA, UCBerkeley, the East Bay Regional Park District, and the National Park Service have proposed a fire protection program for the East Bay Hills. Fire protection is necessary, however, the absence of a re-forestation plan combined with the extensive use of herbicides in the FEMA plan needs immediate reconsideration. The public in the East Bay has not had sufficient time to discuss this. Urge your political representatives, local, state and federal to intervene and extend the period of public debate until July 31, 2013.
