USFS UPDATE: District Ranger Kenneth Born told us: Hazardous fuels reduction work (hand thinning, chipping, fuel wood collection) began in October in the NM-165/Las Huertas Canyon area southeast of Placitas, within two treatment units. The use of prescribed fire is NOT proposed in either treatment unit. Details about the treatment units can be found at https://www.fs.usda.gov/r03/cibola/projects/north-sandia-fuels-reduction-project.

IMPORTANT BULLETIN
Home Owners Insurance Concerns
The attached link is about the problems some New Mexicans have experienced in renewing property insurance due to the impact/potential of wildfires, and about a state plan called FAIR to help. Stats and statements in the news release are interesting — and troubling. At least five property owners in Placitas have had to change Insurance companies to secure a fire insurance policy.
