Wildfire Mitigation & Infrastructure Planning

We provide comprehensive wildfire mitigation and infrastructure planning services to reduce risk across communities, developments, and large landscapes. Our work focuses on identifying vulnerabilities, prioritizing mitigation strategies, and integrating wildfire considerations into the design, development, and management of the built environment.

By combining geospatial analysis, fire behavior modeling, and operational experience, we deliver practical solutions that improve resilience and support long-term risk reduction.

What we do

We help clients understand where they are most vulnerable and what actions will have the greatest impact.

Services include:

  • Community Wildfire Protection Plans (CWPPs) and landscape-scale mitigation strategies

  • Subdivision and infrastructure fire protection planning

  • HOA and community wildfire mitigation planning, including covenant and development standard guidance

  • Structure ignition vulnerability assessments and parcel-level mitigation recommendations

  • Fuel treatment and prescribed fire planning and program design

  • Large landowner wildfire planning and long-range mitigation strategies

  • Defensible space planning and prioritization

  • Integration of wildfire mitigation into land use, development, and infrastructure planning

Our approach

Effective mitigation requires more than checklists—it requires understanding how fire interacts with the landscape and the built environment.

Our approach integrates:

  • Geospatial analysis to identify risk patterns and prioritize mitigation

  • Fire behavior modeling to understand potential fire pathways and intensity

  • Operational insight to ensure recommendations are realistic and effective

We focus on:

  • Targeted, high-impact mitigation—not broad, unfocused treatments

  • Alignment with real-world response capabilities

  • Strategies that are implementable, defensible, and scalable

Who this is for

We support clients responsible for managing wildfire risk across communities, infrastructure, and large landholdings, including:

  • Homeowners associations and communities

  • Developers and land planners

  • Large landowners and ranches

  • Utility providers and infrastructure operators

  • Fire departments and public agencies

Applications

Our mitigation and planning services support:

  • Community and HOA resilience – reducing structure ignition potential and improving defensible space

  • Subdivision and development planning – integrating wildfire risk into design and approvals

  • Infrastructure protection – identifying vulnerabilities and hardening opportunities

  • Fuel treatment prioritization – targeting areas that will have the greatest impact on fire behavior

  • Insurance and risk reduction – supporting improved insurability and risk understanding

  • Long-term land management – aligning mitigation with operational and ecological goals

Deliverables

We provide clear, actionable outputs that support implementation—not just planning documents.

Typical deliverables include:

  • CWPPs and community mitigation plans

  • Subdivision and infrastructure fire protection plans

  • Parcel-level and landscape-scale risk assessments

  • Prioritized mitigation and fuel treatment plans

  • GIS-based maps, dashboards, and StoryMaps

  • Policy and development standard recommendations
