Mineral & Stringtown Hazard Tree Removal

Season three of strategic tree removal in Mineral and Stringtown since April 2025. Expect noise from equipment and potential traffic delays. Access via HWY 36 to Aspen, Aspen Lane West, Aspen Lane East, Sugar Pine, and Lodgepole Lanes may be limited for your safety during operational hours (M-F, 7:30am-4:30pm).

In collaboration with Mineral FIREWISE USA®, the RCDTC is implementing Phase II of the Mineral & Stringtown Hazard Tree Removal Project. This project continues to serve Mineral's Cool-Air, Lassen Alpine Village, and Meadowview subdivisions in addition to Stringtown to treat dead, dying, and diseased trees, and trees that violate Public Resources Code 4291. The Mineral & Stringtown Hazard Tree Removal Project is a TinderSmart Tehama program available at no additional cost to residents.
