Our Mission
The California Forest Pest Council (CFPC) aims to foster education concerning forest pests and forest health, and advises the California Board of Forestry and Fire Protection on forest health protection.
Sudden Oak Death
For in depth information about Sudden Oak Death visit the California Oak Mortality Task Force (COMTF) web site.
COMTF focuses on the plant pathogen Phytophthora ramorum, which can have devastating effects in the wildlands it inhabits and has had substantial impacts on the nursery industry internationally.
Meetings and Events
The California Forest Pest Council has annual meetings every fall for CFPC members, forest managers, forest pest specialists, policy makers and analysts, government agencies and anyone interested in forest health.
