COEUR d'ALENE — The Kootenai Fuel Reduction Project is scheduled to resume next week on about 174 acres of Idaho Panhandle National Forest just east of Hayden Lake and south of Hayden Creek.
The project’s goals are to reduce wildfire danger in the wildland-urban interface by thinning excess woody materials on the ground or in the forest understory or canopy that can increase the severity of fire, according to a press release.
