From their Hazard Mitigation Grant Program, FEMA has approved and issued, through the pass-through entity, CalOES, the Fuels Reduction-Eucalyptus Tree Removal project for Sonoma State University. The project entails the removal of approximately 205 varying sized eucalyptus trees growing on the perimeter of SSU’s campus along the east side on Petaluma Hill Road and on the south side of East Cotati Avenue. The project is expected to be completed by 12/24/2021. The project not only eliminates hazardous combustible wood-species on campus but also supports the initiative to add solar canopies along the south side of campus on East Cotati Avenue in need of clear southern exposure to harvest sun.
