“People can live compatibly with wildland fire if they are aware of and prepared for local fire conditions. The more populated and closer a community is to fire prone areas, the greater the need for a proactive approach and a community’s involvement in the fire risk reduction activities.” ~ Firewise Brochure
“This is the time of the year when fire defense should be on everyone’s mind that lives in Wildland Urban Interface communities. In the fire prone ecosystems of Yosemite National Park, it is not always “if” wildfires will occur, but a matter of “where” and “when”. Individual and collective prevention and preparedness efforts create a safer park for the public, residents, employees, and firefighters. Fire-safe clearance is 100 feet!” – Defensible Space Awareness Brochure
