(Spherical equirectangular 360 panorama, best viewed with apps or websites that provide 360 VR viewing) Retired school principal Yvonne Knight-Carter has family land that qualifies for implementation and maintenance of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Conservation Practice Firebreak (Code 394) on the forested land behind her childhood home and other neighboring family homes, near Moncks Corners, SC, on November 19, 2020.
The firebreak line marks the stop of a lightning strike fire that threatened the homes and surrounding area. Today, a bulldozer refreshes and widens the firebreak to the full specification of the forester’s plans. She works with NRCS Soil Conservationist Jabril Wright worked with Ms. Knight-Carter during her application and conducts site visits to ensure state and local coordination and work is happening as planned.
