IRS990/Desc0Fire and Forestry Program In 2022, CLERC completed hundreds of acres of wildfire fuel reduction, removed dozens of hazard trees, and supported chipping services, which benefitted thousands of citizens living in the wildland-urban interface (WUI) in Lake County, California. CLERC secured funds and initiated environmental review for over 900 acres of forest health restoration activities through CAL FIREs Forest Health Program. CLERC worked with local stakeholders to address the large-scale tree mortality event that started in 2021 due to onoing drought conditions. CLERC participated in regional partnerships with conservation groups in neighboring counties to secure funding and implement forest health and wildfire resilience landowner assistance programs including the North Bay Forest Improvement Program (NBFIP), the Regional Forest and Fire Capacity Program (RFFC), and the Regional Conservation Partnership Program (RCPP). In support of these activities, CLERC employed several staff members dedicated to this program. CLERC worked with partners across all sectors including federal, state, and local government agencies, as well as private citizens and nonprofit organizations.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0The Clear Lake Environmental Research Center Lab (CLERC Lab) has continued to grow and take on more clients, including Lake County Special Districts, the largest water agency in the county. Being the only accredited lab in Lake County, the CLERC Lab provides an opportunity for water agencies to invest utility ratepayer dollars in the locality. In order to maintain the CLERC Lab's accreditation certification, we successfully completed a third party assessment and the required proficiency tests for the standards methods being used. The CLERC Lab is currently accredited for microbiology of drinking water and wastewater.
