OPR Releases Document to Support Local Planning in the WUI

This week the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research (OPR) released its updated Fire Hazard Planning Technical Advisory, a document intended to support local planning in the Wildfire Urban Interface (WUI) and high fire hazard risk areas. Additionally, OPR released a WUI Planning Guide to complement the Technical Advisory.  

In collaboration with CAL FIRE, the Board of Forestry and Fire Protection, and the Community Wildfire Planning Center, OPR will host an informational webinar on September 14th to provide an overview of the Fire Hazard Planning Technical Advisory, Wildland-Urban Interface Planning Guide, and additional resources the State is developing to promote wildfire resilience.
