Mitigation Strategies 1. Public Education: A. Burn Permit Administration Debris escapes account for 12% of ignitions in the Battalion. This is a significant number considering the requirement to have a burn permit in place prior to burning and the fact that restrictions and information are available on the permit to prevent escape. In order to reduce this number of escapes leading to vegetation fires, education at the time of permit issuance is critical so that residents know to review the restrictions and ensure that they are in compliance before lighting the match. LE-62s (Residential Burn Permit – Burn Pile) are issued by authorized Cal Fire personnel at the Alta and Colfax Stations. Annually, Battalion personnel issue approximately 800-1000 permits. All employees cover the compliance issues with every permittee. Battalion personnel will also be issuing permits for the City of Colfax. There will be open hours during the winter. Burn hours will be implemented around May 1 and total restriction will start around July 1 depending on weather. The burn ban will be lifted as per NEU policy in the fall at the end of declared fire season. LE-5 (California Inter-Agency Burning Permit) and LE-7 (Project Type Burning Permit) are issued on SRA lands after an inspection by an authorized Cal Fire employee. These project burn permits are typically used to dispose of larger piles of material and typically require an inspection by agency personnel prior to authorization to burn. All permitees are given material covering air pollution rules and information regarding the Placer County chipping program as an alternative to burning. B. Public Education Forums Battalion personnel participate in numerous public education programs. The area is a well-known recreational area with campgrounds at the American River, Bear River, Rollins Lake and numerous hiking trails attracting day users throughout the Battalion. The target audience is quite large and has proven to be receptive to various programs as follows: . On going events through out the year include: • Recreational areas are frequently visited by Cal Fire personnel to provide fire safe information and material. • The local elementary schools are targeted for Smokey Bear programs. • Battalion Staff participate in Fourth of July parades at both Colfax & Dutch Flat. • Battalion Staff work with cooperating fire protection agencies in fire prevention programs in both private and public education forums • Battalion engine companies are up-dating pre-fire plans, expanding on WUI pre-plan guidelines and maps, and conducting business inspections through-out the year as fiscal limitations and staff time allows. 72
