The work has been going on all summer on priority lines identified in the Sewer Master Plan, but over the next three weeks, it will be a lot more visible.
Join the Dunsmuir Resource Center, CORE, FireSafe Council of Siskiyou County, Dunsmuir Firewise, and the City of Dunsmuir for a Wildfire Preparedness Workshop on Friday, August 15th, from 5:30 to 7:30 PM at the Dunsmuir Community Center (4841 Dunsmuir Ave).
These warnings indicate that the wildfire danger will be especially critical on both days, and that the weather conditions could facilitate the rapid spread of any new wildfire starts. This does not mean there is a fire.
The City of Dunsmuir hosted a summit with Union Pacific on Tuesday to discuss building public trail access to Mossbrae Falls via the Hedge Creek Falls trail.
The ongoing sewer line replacement project will begin work on Dunsmuir Ave between Spring and Spruce Streets, and Sacramento Ave between Spring and Willow Streets, starting next week.
Union Pacific, the EPA, the California Waterboard, and California Fish & Wildlife will be hosting an open house on Wednesday, July 16th, 2025, at the Dunsmuir Community Center (4835 Dunsmuir Ave) regarding planned work this summer in the railyard.
These permanent bans were put in place due to Dunsmuir’s extreme wildfire risk and the incredibly high number of wildfires sparked by Fireworks each year.
Dunsmuir Firewise and Fire Safe Council will be having its meeting tonight (July 1st) in the City Council Chamber/Fire Hall (5902 Dunsmuir Ave) at 5 PM.
