*Yes, I have completed the requirements on the other side of this form. I understand that the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service provides this service through a cooperative agreement with San Diego Rural Fire Protection District. I understand that the chipped material will be left on my property to be used for landscaping. I will comply with the chipping crew’s decision as to where the chipped material will be deposited, knowing that safety is their foremost concern. I will not make any attempts to load brush in the chipping machine, and understand that all work will be halted if this attempt is made. I understand that I am only authorized to clear brush up to 100 feet around structures, as required by County and State laws, and that I am responsible for obtaining the necessary environmental permits for any brush clearing beyond the required 100 feet.
