The Arizona Department of Forestry and Fire Management (DFFM) continues its ongoing efforts to protect Arizona’s residents and critical infrastructure with two fuels reduction projects in Yavapai County.

Ruger Ranch Phase 2
The 2,500-acre Ruger Ranch Phase 2 fuels reduction project spans north of Peeples Valley, southwest of Kirkland Junction, and west of SR 89.

The Department of Forestry and Fire Management (DFFM) has started a fuels reduction project within Oracle State Park in an ongoing effort to protect Arizona’s communities and improve the health of the state’s
diverse landscapes.

DFFM foresters designed the 36-acre Cherry Project to reduce the wildfire threat to the park and nearby communities as well as to improve the resiliency of Arizona’s native vegetation.
