Notes/Activity

- Zupko working closely with the SE FAC Pilot (N. GA) to integrate multiple programs (RSG, Firewise etc) into planning and implementation - Utilize NSAT/BBN to target areas best suited for initial engagement (or follow up from recent engagement) Zupko to work with NSAT to develop maps spatially showing areas of opportunity - Work with trusted local partners to provide local leadership to help overcome obstacles in developing CWPPs and similar concepts. - Federal Partners adjacent to or nearby CARs without CWPPs assist in developing CWPPs through in-kind assistance. - State forestry agencies identify areas where CWPPs, Firewise, or equivalent concepts would be most impactful. - Develop state by state maps footprinting CARS, demonstrating to the fire professional and lay person the degree of risk from wildfire.
