and brush that directly threatens the area 100’ around their primary home. Applications must be

Eastern Madera Fire Prevention Assistance, is part of California Climate Investments, a statewide
program that puts billions of Cap-and-Trade dollars to work reducing GHG emissions,
strengthening the economy, and improving public health and the environment– particularly in
disadvantaged communities. The Cap-and-Trade program also creates a financial incentive for
industries to invest in clean technologies and develop innovative ways to reduce pollution.
California Climate Investments projects include affordable housing, renewable energy, public
transportation, zero-emission vehicles, environmental restoration, more sustainable agriculture,
recycling, and much more. At least 35 percent of these investments are located within and
benefiting residents of disadvantaged communities, low-income communities, and low-income
households across California. For more information, visit the California Climate Investments
