Siskiyou
Prescribed Burn
Association
The Siskiyou Prescribed Burn Association (SPBA) includes landowners, tribes, and local organizations and agencies that work together to safely conduct burns in the interest of restoring historic roles of fire, using fire as a management tool, and reducing wildfire hazard to our communities and watersheds throughout the diverse fire-adapted landscapes of Siskiyou County.
Like many areas across the West, the impacts of increased fire severity as a result of climate change and land management practices, including fire suppression, has served as an inspiration to bring people together.
As such, the Scott River Watershed Council, Shasta Valley Resource Conservation District, Mid Klamath Watershed Council and the Mt. Shasta Bioregional Ecology Center have partnered to bring together the critical resources necessary for neighbors to help neighbors bring fire back our area in a way that promotes both ecological benefits and community safety.
SPBA offers training opportunities, equipment and tools, fire behavior expertise and planning to help promote responsible prescribed burning throughout the county.
