 | Jackson County Integrated Fire Plan
Since the creation of the National Fire Plan in 2000 and passage of the Healthy Forests Restoration Act in 2003,
communities have an increased opportunity to participate in federal agency wildfire fuels management planning,
to receive funding for fuels management on private lands, and to be active participants in reducing wildfire
risk throughout the county.
The purpose of the plan is to assist residents, property owners and agency officials in the planning area to be
prepared for a potential wildfire event. The plan identifies high risk areas and individual parcels that are
most vulnerable to wildfire. It also offers strategies and methods for reducing wildfire risk in these areas.
