Welcome to the Storm Mountain Wildfire Action Group

 

Vision:

To bring Storm Mountain Community and resources such as partners, tools and knowledge together to minimize wildfire risk and to create a more resilient community.

 

Mission: How do we achieve this?

SWAG is a group of Storm Mountain community members who have come together to reduce wildfire risk and overall make Storm Mountain a more resilient community. We do this by working collaboratively with our partners to identify where we can take action to mitigate risk and become more prepared for the next wildfire as well as other emergencies. 

 

Focus Areas:
  • Wildfire Mitigation Implementation

  • Communication

  • Emergency Response

The 2026 Slash Dumpster Event Is Open for Sign-Up!

As many of you know SWAG has held slash chipping events the past two years.  We are not eligible for that grant this year, so we are pleased to announce a partnership with LFRA which will bring dumpsters capable of holding approximately 60 pick up loads of slash (ONLY!).  The event will be held at 644 Lakeview Dr., David & Gail Hoffman's (aka Epichoregeo Ranch).  

 

The dumpsters can only take natural material (burned or unburned) logs less than 6' and less than 24" diameter.  Any dumpster containing materials needing to be dumped at the landfill instead of chipped will result in SWAG being charged $500 by LFRA.  That can't happen, especially if we hope to be considered for this program again in the future. (See attached LFRA Flyer)

 

There are strict guidelines which must be followed to take part.  

 

The window for this event is July 7-17.  If we fill the dumpsters sooner, we will shut down before the 17th.

 

  • NO:  Trash, Processed Lumber, Fence Posts, Nails, Wire, Tinsel, or Rocky Material.  Any load inspected (by Dave) and found to have any of these will be totally refused.

  • First signed up/first served:  See the link below to sign up - your sign up will be dated when received.

  • Due to an unknown number of participants/amounts we can load into each dumpster, there is a 2 pick-up load limit per person on the first round.  If you have more, you can indicate that in your response.

  • You bring it (during your assigned time and date), transfer it to the dumpster and clean up after yourself.

  • No "drop ins" will be accepted.

  • Entrance to the property will be monitored by video.

  • Dave will be in attendance at all times when slash is unloaded.
