Fuels for Schools...and beyond
Woody Biomass Utilization Program
Welcome to the DNRC Fuels for Schools Program website! Our mission is to facilitate and promote the beneficial use of woody biomass"waste" created by forest management treatments. Improved use of forest biomass has many benefits: it can improve air quality by reducing slash pile burning, lower land management costs, improve forest health and resilience, economically assist in protecting communities and watersheds from wildfire, provide low cost, locally sourced heating fuel, reduce fossil fuel consumption, and create rural jobs.
