The Washington Resource Conservation and Development Council (WRCD), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, in partnership with the Kittitas Fire Adapted Communities Coalition (KFACC), is seeking proposals from qualified consultants to support the update and development of the Kittitas County Community Wildfire Protection Plan (CWPP). This project aims to enhance community resilience to wildfire through updated risk assessments, comprehensive mapping, and the creation of a clear, actionable CWPP aligned with federal and state guidelines.

Washington Fire Adapted Communities Learning Network (WAFAC) published its 2024 Report. Take a look for an overview of what WAFAC staff and members accomplished last year, including the development of new resources, learning series, and another successful annual workshop.
This toolkit is designed for community stakeholders and planning partners involved in CWPP development or updates. It provides a structured approach to integrating wildfire recovery strategies by identifying key elements, engaging relevant stakeholders, and outlining actionable steps.
The people of Asotin County, alongside local, state, and federal partners, united to develop a Community Wildfire Protection Plan (CWPP) that reflects the county’s unique landscapes, values, and priorities for wildfire resilience. Together, stakeholders crafted a CWPP that identifies strategies for protecting lives, homes, infrastructure, and natural resources, prioritizes at-risk areas across public and private lands, and outlines actions for vegetation management, emergency preparedness, community education, and post-fire recovery. This CWPP serves as both a blueprint and a call to action for building a safer, more fire-resilient Asotin County.
