Protect existing and proposed infrastructure by examining present and future hazards due to increased wildfires and post-wildfire conditions

Approach

Tactics

Design bridge and culverts to minimize diversion potential.
Increase defensible space around infrastructure and discourage development in the wildland-urban interface.
Enhance existing public and private fire hazard education and mitigation as related to infrastructure design.

Sensitivity

• Increased wildfire intensity will have broad implications for infrastructure design and maintenance.

Strategy

Reduce the risk and long-term impacts of severe disturbances
