| Summary | The Dettah Community Wildfire Protection Plan was developed to provide practical and operational wildland/urban interface risk mitigation strategies to reduce the threat of wildfire to developments within the community. The project objectives include: 1) Assess and quantify community wildland/urban interface hazard and risk; 2) Based on interface hazard and risk: a) Develop and prioritize fuel management and maintenance recommendations and prescriptions, and b) Develop a summary of significant factors within the community that would enhance its exposure to wildfire and offer recommendations to reduce that threat. This Community Wildfire Protection Plan was developed using standardized FireSmart hazard assessment protocols and mitigative measures were developed based on the seven disciplines of wildland/urban interface approach and current research and knowledge in interface community protection. An implementation plan is included in this Plan to assist stakeholders to budget and complete projects based on the priorities identified. |
