Education
When it comes to being FireSmart, education is everything. From landscaping best practices to fire-resilient building materials, learning what you can do today to protect against wildfires can save homes and lives tomorrow.
Development Considerations
Whether you’re in the design stage, building, or performing renovations, there are many ways you can help protect your home and community from wildfires.
Vegetation Management
One of the key ways to mitigate wildfire threats is to manage vegetation on properties in fire-prone areas.
Emergency Planning
It takes everyone from firefighters to government representatives to homeowners to have the best-laid plans in a worst-case scenario.
Cross-Training
Cross training is important both for the safety of wildfire and wildland firefighters and for the effectiveness of wildfire suppression.
Interagency Cooperation
FireSmart is a shared responsibility, which means it relies on strong and lasting partnerships.
