Why should your community have a community wildfire protection plan?
Wildfires are a growing problem nationwide, not just in the West. Eastern states like New York, New Jersey and South Carolina have had wildfires in the past year.
Now is the time to work with your community to assess wildfire risks and create an action plan. A community wildfire protection plan can help you strategically document local risk and develop an action plan that helps everyone understand how to make their home and community safer.
