Briefing paper: Community Wildfire Protection Plans

Abstract

Community Wildfire Protection Plans (CWPPs) represent the best opportunity we have to address the challenges of the Wildland/Urban Interface (WUI) in a way that brings about comprehensive and locally supported solutions. The long-term success of CWPPs will require dedicated and focused leadership along with meaningful collaboration by all partners. It is important that agency and organizational leaders understand and demonstrate commitment to the unique roles they play in producing and implementing effective CWPPs.
