Homeowners in Sonoma County face abatement proceedings if they do not select one of two options by Wednesday to remove hazardous materials from their properties damaged by the Sonoma Complex Fires that destroyed 6,000 structures in October. The Sonoma County Board of Supervisors this morning approved the abatement provision contained in an amendment to a fire cleanup emergency ordinance they passed on Oct. 31. The deadline was Nov. 13 to file a Right of Entry application that allows the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to remove the hazardous debris, ash and foundation of a home without cost to the homeowner. Homeowners who want to pay a private contractor to do the job must file a debris and ash removal work plan by the close of business Wednesday.
