Union County Emergency Services is accepting public comment on the updated 2026 Community Wildfire Protection Plan (CWPP).
The CWPP is a non-regulatory document that serves as a guiding framework, offering recommendations and resources to help reduce the risk and impacts of wildfire in Union County. The plan addresses all CWPP objectives and meets the requirements of the Healthy Forest Restoration Act, while aligning with the National Cohesive Wildland Fire Management Strategy.
A key component of the plan is the Mitigation Action Items, which outline prioritized strategies and actions to strengthen community wildfire resilience.
The draft plan is available for review at: Community Wildfire Protection Plan – 2026
