NEW Fire Risk Assessment Program
Protect your home from wildfire and prevent catastrophic fires from developing. A District forester will visit your home site and evaluate its ability to survive a wildfire. Appointment duration is typically less than one hour for each home site. Homeowners will receive an assessment form that will provide practical ways to increase their homes' ability to survive a wildfire. Call (509) 535-7274 or email the District forester to set up a free appointment.
