Oil Spill Response

CCC crews are trained for quick response to clean up oil spills and rescue birds and wildlife.

Emergency ResponseAgricultural ResponseEarthquake ResponseFlood ResponseOil Spill ResponseWildland FirefightingOther Emergency Response Efforts 
 
 

The CCC’s solid reputation for emergency response on fires and floods prompted a callout in the early 1980s for our Corpsmembers to assist with oil spill cleanups. Crews rescued birds and wildlife from numerous spills in the San Francisco Bay and throughout the state.
After the 1989 Exxon Valdez grounding, the CCC began to explore the possibility of greater involvement in cleanup and recovery efforts. Subsequently, the CCC received a grant from BP to develop an oil spill response training program and curriculum that initially prepared two hundred corpsmembers in Humboldt and Ventura Counties for deployment.
Since then, the CCC has worked closely with the Department of Fish and Game’s Office of Spill Prevention and Response (OSPR) program to routinely train our Corpsmembers.

CCC Backcountry Trails Program Receives Merit Award

Santa Maria Corpsmember Rosa Perez, working on the Shasta-Trinity Backcountry Trails crew, uses a crosscut saw.

Every summer, CCC Corpsmembers head into California’s wilderness areas. For five months, they life off-grid in the backcountry while constructing and maintaining recreational trails for the public to enjoy.
Crews don’t do this work for recognition. In fact, Corpsmembers don’t even bring phones into their remote project sites. However, the impact of this transformative program speaks for itself.
On May 1, CCC’s Backcountry Trails Program was honored to receive the 2024 California Trails and Greenways Program Merit Award which recognizes efforts to promote, enhance, and expand public awareness and use of California’s trails and greenways. Since its inception in 1979, CCC’s Backcountry Program has made quite the impact, and this past season was no different. In 2023, 90 Corpsmembers worked together to:
The 2023-24 California Spending Plan: Resources and Environmental Protection
It also includes a combined $1 million from the General Fund and
Exposition Park Improvement Fund for the working drawings phase of a
project to build a new surveillance system for the park. (The total
project is anticipated to cost $10 million.)
Authorizes New Park Partnerships. The
budget package includes trailer bill language authorizing the
establishment of foundations for the California African American Museum
and for Exposition Park. The language also authorizes these two entities
and their respective foundations to engage in specified
fundraising-related activities. Additionally, the language requires the
Department of Finance to submit a report relating to the foundations to
the Legislature on or before January 10, 2024 and annually thereafter.
These provisions become inoperative on July 1, 2030.
Office of Energy
Infrastructure Safety 
The budget includes a total of $41 million from various special funds
for the Office of Energy Infrastructure Safety (OEIS). This reflects a
net decrease of $1 million, or 3 percent, from the estimated 2022‑23
level. The year-to-year funding level for the office remains fairly
stable because the augmentations discussed below largely replaced
limited-term monies provided in 2022‑23.
Continues OEIS Implementation. The budget
includes a total of $14 million in 2023‑24 (of which $13 million is
ongoing) from special funds and 67 positions for three proposals to
support OEIS’ efforts to operate as an independent department and meet
its statutory requirements.
Supports Implementation of Expedited Utility
Infrastructure Safety Program. The budget includes
$4 million in 2023‑24 and ongoing from the Public Utilities Commission
Utilities Reimbursement Account (PUCURA) and 18 positions to support
OEIS’ implementation of Chapter 819 of 2022 (SB 884, McGuire).
Chapter 819 authorizes large investor-owned utilities to submit
distribution infrastructure undergrounding plans to OEIS and requires
the office to approve or deny the plans within nine months. In addition
to this funding, the budget also includes language authorizing the

Reaching Those in Need: Estimates of State SNAP Participation Rates in 2020

​This report—part of an annual series—presents estimates of the percentage of eligible persons, by state, who participated in USDA's SNAP during an average month in fiscal year 2020 and in the two previous fiscal years. Because the Coronavirus COVID-19 public health emergency affected data collection starting in March 2020, this summary covers only the pre-pandemic period of October 2019 through February 2020. Thus, this report presents rates only for all eligible persons during the pre-pandemic months of FY 2020.

SNAP Program Access Index

The Program Access Index  is one of the measures FNS uses to reward states for high performance in the administration of SNAP. Performance awards were authorized by the 2022 Farm Bill. The PAI is designed to indicate the degree to which low-income people have access to SNAP benefits. The purpose of this step-by-step guide is to describe the calculation of the PAI in detail.
