An application is required. Assistance is on a percentage basis and subject to certain maximums per property.
We are happy to be able to help those with the extraordinary fuel load caused by the storm.
Funding for this assistance is available thanks to grants from CAL FIRE’s California Climate Investment Program. These grants programs are part of California Climate Investments, a statewide program that puts billions of Cap-and-Trade dollars to work reducing GHG emissions, strengthening the economy, and improving public health and the environment– particularly in disadvantaged communities. The Cap-and-Trade program also creates a financial incentive for industries to invest in clean technologies and develop innovative ways to reduce pollution. California Climate Investments projects include affordable housing, renewable energy, public transportation, zero-emission vehicles, environmental restoration, more sustainable agriculture, recycling, and much more. At least 35 percent of these investments are located within and benefiting residents of disadvantaged communities, low-income communities, and low-income households across California.
