Press Release from the Mendocino Co. Sheriff’s Office:
UKIAH, Calif. – We have received many inquiries about ongoing marijuana eradication operations in Mendocino, Lake, Colusa, Glenn, Tehama, and Trinity County. We can confirm these operations are ongoing, however, due to officer safety and security reasons, we cannot release any additional information relating to these activities.
The purpose of this multi-agency, focused operation comprising federal, state and local law enforcement agencies is to identify and eradicate illegal marijuana cultivation sites on public lands in and near the Mendocino National Forest, and to conduct reclamation activities on the environmentally affected areas.
Prop 215 medical marijuana grow sites are not being targeted as this is not the focus of the eradication and reclamation effort.

eastern butte got flown a bit today

South Trinity had a fixed wing plane flying around circling taking aerials today. You could see the flash...
Not sure aerial cameras woulduse a flash as it would not actually light up the target area from such a distance and would rather have the effect of illuminating whatever water vapor might be in the air around the camera, screwing up the long distance photography.
Its more likely that you saw the sun glinting off a lens as the camera mount moved the camera. Like doing morse code with a mirror.

Operation to clear illicit pot gardens from forest begins

A six-county, multiple-agency operation to eradicate illicit marijuana gardens in the Mendocino National Forest and on public lands has begun, the Mendocino County Sheriff's Office announced Friday.
The effort, which Mendocino County Sheriff Tom Allman talked about last year, began with a two-day symposium in December to begin coordinating and planning. Training and activity began July 15.
"We have received many inquiries about ongoing marijuana eradication operations in Mendocino, Lake, Colusa, Glenn, Tehama, and Trinity County. We can confirm these operations are ongoing, however, due to officer safety and security reasons, we cannot release any additional information relating to these activities," the MCSO said in a prepared statement.
The purpose of the multi-agency, focused operation, comprising federal, state and local law enforcement agencies, is to identify and eradicate illegal marijuana cultivation sites on public lands in and near the Mendocino National Forest, and to conduct reclamation activities on the environmentally affected areas.
Medical marijuana gardens grown under state the Compassionate Use Act, Proposition 215, are not being targeted as they are not the focus of the eradication and reclamation effort, according to the MCSO.
"Large-scale illegal marijuana cultivation leads to deforestation, damages wildlife habitats, and induces hazardous chemical pollution," the MCSO stated. "The use of herbicides, pesticides and rodenticides can

cause extensive and long-term damage to ecosystems and impact public drinking water for hundreds of miles." Reclaiming the devastated areas is a key component in the ongoing operations, according to the MCSO statement. Removing trash and infrastructure at in the sites helps to restore the land to its natural condition. Hundreds of pounds of hazardous debris and trash, including propane tanks and empty pesticide containers are removed from these sites each year, according to the MCSO.
"This process makes the lands available once again for current and future generations to safely enjoy recreating on public lands and benefiting from clean water and healthy natural resources.
"We ask for the public's patience and understanding as we conduct these operations and reclaim our public lands," the MCSO stated.
The operation, named "Full Court Press," aims to eradicate illicit gardens, reclaim forest land and garner arrests and convictions, Sheriff Tom Allman stated previously of the effort, which he spearheaded.
The six involved counties share the Mendocino National Forest.
At the December symposium to begin planning the effort, the director of the Northern California region of High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area said Lake and Mendocino counties accounted for more than two-thirds of the 1.56 million marijuana plants seized on public lands in the six counties during 2009.

Sounds good to me......In 2011 there is no excuse for growing on public lands.
As a bow hunter, it concerns me greatly to be in the National Forest with a big amigo grow in almost every canyon.
I was talking to friends in the Potter Valley area recently who are concerned about the amount of flyovers this year. Hopefully the law sticks to the large ops on public land and leaves the med folks alone.....

A cartel grow usually ranging in the multi-thousand plant count range, usually tended to by undocumented Mexican Nationals who are armed and willing to use said arms, and have a nasty habit of destroying the eco-system in the area they are growing.

Danger Close Flyover
Danger Close Flyover
Not ten minutes ago, single chopper, white with blue and red stripes. Couldnt get the #, but it was close enough that I could see it very clearly along with the passengers in the chopper. I thought for a second they were just going to land and come say hi. Any ideas? Im in the 209, very small backyard set up, less than 30 holes. flew directly over the house, close enough to hit with a tennis ball.
Should I worry about a knock.
Thanks
