CalVTP Treatable Landscapes App
This web application
provides a viewing platform for the California Vegetation Treatment Program (CalVTP) Programmatic Environmental Impact Report (PEIR) web map. The purpose of
this viewer is to allow the general public to view treatable areas as
designated in the CalVTP PEIR. This web application will persist as long as the life of the CalVTP PEIR. GEOGRAPHIC SCOPE OF THE CalVTP: TREATABLE LANDSCAPE
Appropriate
areas within which to implement vegetation treatments as part of the CalVTP
were identified by dividing the State Responsibility Area (SRA) into vegetation types from the California Wildlife Habitat Relationship (CWHR) system. Certain vegetation types were
excluded because their wildfire risks are negligible (e.g.,
wet meadow, estuarine). Agricultural vegetation types were also excluded
because this land is generally outside the SRA.
Using
this method, 20.3 million acres within the 31 million-acre SRA were
identified
that may be appropriate for vegetation treatments as part of the CalVTP.
Throughout this PEIR, this area is called “treatable landscape” or
"treatable areas".
It
is important to note that the treatable landscape represents areas
suitable for CalVTP vegetation treatments, but projects will not
necessarily occur in every location within the treatable landscape. The
location and geographic extent of projects will be determined based on
several factors, including environmental constraints and treatment
objectives.
Appendix
PD-1 in the Final PEIR provides a description of Treatable Landscape
Modeling. Download the CalVTP PEIR and Appendices here: Final Program Environmental Impact Report for the California Vegetation Treatment ProgramFor more information,
