I didn't find how long this would take.

Looks like a multi-year project. A decade or more possibly. Hopefully ongoing. When the last unit is burned it will be time to do the first one again. Fuels treatments are not a do-once-and-done thing. As the vegetation regrows the area needs re-treatment. Wait too long and it is like the area was never treated at all.

Burns usually require a specific combination of weather parameters that may or may not occur every year. Mechanical and hand treatments can be done in any weather year around.
