FireWise of Southwest Colorado is offering a chipper rental rebate program for residents wishing to reduce the slash from wildfire fuels mitigation on private lands. Residents in Montezuma, Dolores, La Plata, San Juan and Archuleta counties are eligible for the rebate, which runs through Oct. 31.
The program reimburses residents the lesser of $150/day or 50 percent of the chipper rental cost or mitigation contractor cost. Rebates are also available to homeowner associations that sponsor a chipping day.
Rebate forms are available at equipment rental stores and www.southwestcoloradofires.org (Take Action tab).
