INTRODUCTION 1.1 WHY PLAN? California experienced the deadliest and most destructive wildfires in its history in 2017 and 2018. Fueled by drought, an unprecedented buildup of dry vegetation and extreme winds, the size and intensity of these wildfires caused the loss of more than 100 lives, destroyed thousands of homes and exposed millions of urban and rural Californians to unhealthy air.1 Climate change, an epidemic of dead and dying trees, and the proliferation of new homes in the wildland urban interface (WUI) magnify the threat and place substantially more people and property at risk than in preceding decades. More than 25 million acres of California wildlands are classified as under very high or extreme fire threat, extending that risk over half the state. WUI fires represent an increasingly significant concern for the State of California. California has a chronic and destructive WUI fire history with significant losses of life, structures, infrastructure, agriculture, and businesses. Most local governments that have submitted Local Hazard Mitigation Plans (LHMPs) have identified fire and WUI fires as specific hazards. Even relatively small- acreage WUI fires may result in disastrous damage. Del Norte County is no exception to the increasingly common problem of loss from wildfire. Fuel loads have been accumulating to abnormal levels throughout the West, due to decades of fire suppression and timber harvesting. When residents in the wildland-urban interface understand why fire safety is important,

This report from the National Ocean Economics Program (NOEP) provides a more comprehensive understanding of the economic role of California’s ocean resources than has been available to date. It also provides California with strong evidence that its unique ocean and coastal resources are important to sustaining California’s economy. This information highlights the economic importance of the ocean and coast to California and the nation and underscores the need for continued leadership in balancing resource protection and economic development.

The Del Norte Fire Safe Council volunteered for the task of coordinating the local effort to develop a fire safe plan. The Council received a grant from the US Forest Service Economic Action Program in 2003. The specific purpose of the grant was to fund the creation of a plan to identify and prioritize projects to reduce wildfire risk through the implementation of fuel hazard reduction, community education, and pre-fire suppression in Del Norte County. ForEverGreen Forestry was contracted to develop the plan through the collection of appropriate and necessary information regarding fire safety in Del Norte County (e.g. research, stakeholder input, etc.) using a collaborative process, and to document these efforts in a comprehensive fire safe plan. The Plan, in short, identifies risks and mitigations to reduce risks from wildfire in Del Norte County. It also provides residents with a step-by-step guide on how to fire-safe their homes, structures, and community, and how to best deal with an impending wildfire.
