🌲 Protect Our Forests from Pine Bark Beetles! 🌲After the severe windstorm that hit Leavenworth back in December, many properties have a lot of downed trees and other storm debris. Did you know this debris can become prime habitat for pine bark beetles? These beetles can spread quickly and weaken healthy trees if storm-damaged wood is left unchecked.What you can do:✅ Remove fallen branches and damaged trees from your property promptly.✅ Cut and properly store firewood away from standing pine trees.✅ Consider chipping debris or hauling it to a proper disposal site.✅ Keep an eye out for signs of beetle activity, like small holes or resin “pitches” on trees.By taking action now, we can help protect our forests and community from a beetle outbreak this spring. If you would like to be added to our Spring Community Chipping list, please call us at St 31 (509) 548-7711 or email info@chelanfd3.org. Let’s work together to keep Leavenworth’s forests healthy! 🌲#LeavenworthWA #PineBarkBeetlePrevention #ForestHealth #StormCleanup #CommunityAction ... See MoreSee Less

Chelan County Public Works will have the Leavenworth pit on East Leavenworth Rd open for residents to dispose of storm debris. Please see shared post for times. They also have a storm debris voucher program for those affected by the storms. There is more information here: www.co.chelan.wa.us/solid-waste-management/pages/flood-debris-disposal-programThe Leavenworth Day Pit opens back up Friday and Saturday to receive flood-damaged debris and woody debris from our recent windstorm. Hours are 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. and the pit is at the corner of East Leavenworth and Icicle roads.Remember, you can bring up to 2 cubic yards to this site for dumping. If you have more, use the Dryden Transfer Station (DTS), which is also accepting the free voucher. If you are unable to hand-load your debris into the bins, please use the DTS as well (the tipping floor there is more convenient). This site takes brush from the Apple Maggot Quarantine Zone -- the DTS does not.More details on the free voucher program for people who suffered damages in the recent windstorm and flooding is on our website. You can also get a voucher there or fill one out at the day pit or DTS.www.co.chelan.wa.us/solid-waste-management/pages/flood-debris-disposal-program ... See MoreSee Less

All,We know with the recent storm, many of you have debris that you do not plan to burn and would like disposed of. With that in mind, we've retrieved our Chipper from winter storage and called up the summer chipping crew. Tomorrow and Friday we will be out chipping for folks. Due to demand, we will chip properties which are ok with the chips remaining on site first and then work on areas where transportation of the chips will be necessary. We are working Cascadia Conservation Districttrict, so you can get on the list by going here: cascadiacd.org/programs/roving-chipper-program/ You can also call us at Station 31 at (509) 548-7711 to get added to the list. We will continue working to process this storm debris as long as possible, or until it is gone. We just ask that you help us help you, by setting up the piles in an acceptable fashion so the crew can keep moving. If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out. ...
