Book excerpt: A new initiative, Fire Adapted Communities, acts as an overarching framework that guides wildland-urban interface communities in addressing wildfire risks. Fire Adapted Commmunities' approaches include wildfire education, planning, community partnership-building and hands-on activities designed to provide wildland-urban interface citizens with the necesssary knwoledge, tools and motivation to prepare their communities for inevitable wildfires. Post-fire recovery is also an area of emphasis. The more steps a community takes toward wildfire preparedness, the more fire-adapted it becomes.

Book excerpt: FEMA /DHS/USFA developed the “ Wildland Urban Interface: A Look at Issues and Resolutions” to stimulate action by raising awareness of the crisis that our nation faces related to wildfire in the WUI and lay out a unified, strategic approach to risk reduction at the national, state, regional and local levels. In developing this report, a cross-functional group of stakeholders and subject matter experts (SMEs) from across the nation convened to identify 33 challenges within 13 key WUI issues and develop recommendations to address each challenge. In total, 112 recommendations are presented. These recommendations address challenges in firefighter health and safety, public health and safety, evacuations, forest and rangeland health and resiliency, climate change, community planning and resiliency, infrastructure and utilities, communication strategy and engagement operations, socioeconomic impacts, recovery, emerging technology, data use and modeling, and risk management in wildland fire. The recommendations should be pursued together, forming a system of strategies that require urgent, sustained and actionable implementations. These recommendations are not quick fixes, but solutions for the long term. Leadership on and commitment to the implementation of these recommendations results in a safer America.

Download or read book The Fire Next Time written by Jamison E. Colburn and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wildfire is a growing threat to suburban and exurban communities, partly because fires have grown more severe and frequent as a result of land use and climatic influences and partly because more people are living in fire prone areas. The so-called Healthy Forests Restoration Act (HFRA), the federal government's response to this crisis, is a deeply flawed statute that will likely exacerbate wildfire risks at the same time it makes real ecological restoration even harder. While HFRA took halting, partial steps toward the integration of broad and small scale land use planning, it was the outgrowth of a dysfunctional legislative process in Washington. Before the governance of public lands adapts completely to HFRA, this law should be overhauled (or, ideally, repealed). I suggest targeted reforms to bring about more transparency, greater clarity on what we mean by restoration, and more attention to the trade-offs entailed by further expansion into the wildland/urban interface.

This book was released on 2009 with total page 11 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We also present case study research on wildfire protection planning in two drastically different California communities to illustrate how social diversity influences adaptive capacity to deal with hazards such as wildland fire. These perspectives promote an image of the WUI not as a monolithic entity but a complex mosaic of communities with different needs and existing capacities for wildland fire and natural resource management.
