Yakima
County CWPP
Yakima County
We will provide a comprehensive and collaborative plan that will assist
Yakima County in reducing the risk of catastrophic wildfire. The plan integrates
existing GIS datasets to develop a risk assessment framework for the vegetated
lands—grasslands, forests, rangelands and riparian areas—and developed
communities within the project area. The plan will be collaboratively developed,
it will identify and prioritize areas for hazardous fuels reduction, and
it will recommend realistic measures that homeowners and communities can
take to reduce the ignitability of structures throughout the county. A
wide range of community participation tools will be used to ensure stakeholder
participation throughout the planning process. This early and continued
stakeholder involvement is essential to ensuring that plans and recommendations
meet the needs of the community. This plan will be a live document
that can be updated by the County and involved stakeholders on an annual
basis.
