Nevada County supervisors authorized a Joint Memorandum of Association with Placer and El Dorado counties to improve wildfire resilience and forest biomass management. The collaboration aims to reduce hazardous forest fuels, support biomass projects, and coordinate economic development related to forest health.

All three counties received an 'A' grade for biomass utilization potential, indicating strong infrastructure to support biobased facilities. The agreement allows for flexible actions and joint funding opportunities to address wildfire risks effectively.
