Download or read book Best management practices for creating a community wildfire protection plan written by and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A community wildfire protection plan (CWPP) is a means of bringing local solutions to wildland fire management. In developing and implementing CWPPs, communities assume a leadership role in reducing wildfire risk on federal and nonfederal land. In this publication, we identify best management practices for CWPP development and implementation based on the experiences of 13 communities in 8 states. These communities represent much of the social and ecological diversity found across the U.S. in the Wildland-Urban Interface (WUI)--where human development meets forested areas.

Book excerpt: This is not an all-inclusive document but a guide to assist you in creating a Community Wildfire Protection Plan (CWPP). Remember, the more agency representatives and resident leaders you include in helping you create the document, the better the plan you will have. Please note that items included as suggestions in the template are by no means inclusive of all components your community needs to work on. You will need to identify your own unique risks and create your own solutions. Do not forget to connect with state and local entities who may also be able to provide you with additional guidance about local risks and code requirements. The state of Texas , for example, provides some excellent guidance on developing a CWPP. Please refer to the reference materials added to the end of this document for additional guidance.

This book was released on 2015-01-02 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A community wildfi re protection plan (CWPP) is a means of bringing local solutions to wildland fi re management. In developing and implementing CWPPs, communities assume a leadership role in reducing wildfi re risk on federal and nonfederal land. Although many communities have created CWPPs, foresters estimate that less than 10 percent of the communities at risk from wildfi re have CWPPs in place. Th ese communities can learn a great deal from the experiences of those who have developed CWPPs before them. In this publication, we identify best management practices for CWPP development and implementation based on the experiences of 13 communities in 8 states. Th ese communities represent much of the social and ecological diversity found across the U.S. in the Wildland- Urban Interface (WUI)-where human development meets forested areas.

Book excerpt: "The Pinal County Community Wildfire Protection Plan (CWPP) was developed in response to the Healthy Forests Restoration Act of 2003 (HFRA) for the at-risk communities and unincorporated areas in Pinal County, Arizona, located in and around public lands administered by the US Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management (USDI BLM) Gila District Office, Safford and Tucson Field Offices; the USDI BLM Phoenix District Office, Lower Sonoran Field Office; the Tonto National Forest (TNF); and the Coronado National Forest (CNF). HFRA established ... incentives for communities to develop comprehensive wildfire protection plans in a collaborative, inclusive process ... A CWPP developed in accordance with HFRA is the most effective way to acquire federal funding for fire preparedness and planning. Pinal County, partner agencies, and participating communities wish to adopt a CWPP to better protect their communities from wildfire risk, to better prepare citizens, and to become eligible to apply for and receive federal and other grant monies to implement wildland fire mitigation projects and programs"--Executive Summary, page v.

Book Synopsis Managing the Climate Crisis by : Jonathan Barnett
Download or read book Managing the Climate Crisis written by Jonathan Barnett and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2022-07-14 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The climate, which had been relatively stable for centuries, is well into a new and dangerous phase. In 2020 there were 22 weather and climate disasters in the United States, which resulted in 262 deaths. Each disaster cost more than a billion dollars to repair. This dangerous trend is continuing with unprecedented heat waves, extended drought, extraordinary wildfire seasons, torrential downpours, and increased coastal and river flooding. Reducing the causes of the changing climate is the urgent global priority, but the country will be living with worsening climate disasters at least until midcentury because of greenhouse emissions already in the atmosphere. How to deal with the changing climate is an urgent national security problem affecting almost everyone. In Managing the Climate Crisis, design and planning experts Jonathan Barnett and Matthijs Bouw take a practical approach to addressing the inevitable and growing threats from the climate crisis using constructed and nature-based design and engineering and ordinary government programs. They discuss adaptation and preventive measures and illustrate their implementation for seven climate-related threats: flooding along coastlines, river flooding, flash floods from extreme rain events, drought, wildfire, long periods of high heat, and food shortages. The policies and investments needed to protect lives and property are affordable if they begin now, and are planned and budgeted over the next 30 years. Preventive actions can also be a tremendous opportunity, not only to create jobs, but also to remake cities and landscapes to be better for everyone. Flood defenses can be incorporated into new waterfront parks. The green designs needed to control flash floods can also help shield communities from excessive heat. Combating wildfires can produce healthier forests and generate creative designs for low-ignition landscapes and more fire-resistant buildings. Capturing rainwater can make cities respond to severe weather more naturally, while conserving farmland from erosion and encouraging roof-top greenhouses can safeguard food supplies. Managing the Climate Crisis is a practical guide to managing the immediate threats from a changing climate while improving the way we live.

Download or read book Community Wildfire Protection Plans written by and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Healthy Forest Restoration Act of 2003 (HFRA) was enacted to reduce wildfire risk to communities and other at-risk lands through a collaborative process of planning, prioritizing and implementing hazardous fuel reduction projects. One of the key features of HFRA is the development of community wildfire protection plans (CWPPs). We studied the development of CWPPs in order to identify those factors and processes that consistently lead to effective collaborative fire and fuels management as defined by HFRA, and enhance local social capacity to sustain wildfire protection activities into the future. Findings from this research highlight the importance of: (1) drawing on local knowledge and skills; (2) building learning communities; (3) accessing networks and involving intermediaries; and (4) building on local capacities and developing new capacities to successful wildfire planning.
