Putting water on flames is only one part of quelling the wildfire problem. In an age of more frequent and severe wildfires, communities and organizations must work to mitigate risk and manage impacts of fire before, during, and after events. This session will look at the challenges of planning for fires—especially in an era of rapid growth in the wildland-urban interface—and new resources to help communities adapt. Panelists will discuss cost management, equity issues, secondary impacts of fire, resource allocation, and advances in fire weather prediction.
