Supplemental Information: Lands surrounding CWPPs provide a tremendous opportunity to influence where and how fuel reduction projects funds may be distributed. Among those benefits is the opportunity to establish a localized definition and boundary for the wildland-urban interface at risk. In addition to giving communities the flexibility to define their own WUI, CWPPs also assist federal agencies in providing specific consideration to fuel reduction projects that implement CWPPs. CWPPS help influence increased private land management assistance to complement and implement broader fuel reduction management objectives across fire-prone landscapes; and encourage the implementation of the mitigation strategies identified in CWPPs.
