Rio Arriba County CWPP

   

Working collaboratively with local and state government representatives, fire districts, Federal agencies and interested parties, this landscape scale Community Wildfire Protection Plan (CWPP) was developed to produce a risk assessment for community protection.  The process of identifying the areas at risk was accomplished through the development of a series of maps, which displayed different intensity levels for the components that constitute hazard and risk.  The extreme and high threat levels then were combined with community values determined from local participation to produce a risk assessment that identified the wildland-urban interface surrounding the communities.  Communication and education were the key to community involvement.  This kind of community wildfire protection planning relies heavily on the use of defensible space concepts to reduce the risk of losing structures to fire.  Effective use of limited resources required coordination between land management agencies, community interests and local plan administrators.  The results of such coordination among agencies and communities allowed the CWPP to become a dynamic document to guide the needed action steps to achieve community protection.
