It is the homeowner’s responsibility to comply with California State Law. In some cases, based on the fuel type, topography, and weather conditions, 100 feet of clearance may not be sufficient to protect your home. The clearance provided by EDCFSC will focus on the 100 feet immediately surrounding your home. MORE, or a contractor, will perform the work designated on the evaluation form, up to a maximum of $300. The purpose of the work is to help create defensible space around your home, and to provide safe access along your driveway. The crew will rake, weed-­‐
eat, remove brush and limb trees from around your structure. Trees that are recommended for removal are the homeowner’s responsibility. The crews will not clean roofs or gutters.
