Wildfire Prevention Activities

Wildfire prevention activities involve strategies to reduce the risk of fires starting and spreading. This includes clearing away dead vegetation, creating firebreaks, and managing brush around communities. Fire bans and public education encourage responsible behavior, while inspections identify potential hazards. Regulatory measures may restrict activities like open burning during dry periods. Maintenance of equipment and proper disposal of flammable materials also help. The goal is to minimize ignition sources and create defensible spaces that protect lives, property, and natural resources from the damaging effects of wildfires.
