Wildfire. Wildfire is presumed to be a low frequency event on enrolled lands, because such properties will primarily be riparian habitats or agricultural lands. However, more frequent wildfire in adjacent uplands and mountains may indirectly affect Arctic grayling. For example, mountain fires followed by heavy precipitation may cause excessive sediment input from headwater streams, causing fine sediment deposition at Arctic grayling spawning sites adjacent to enrolled lands. In the event of a large-scale fire in the watershed or an intense localized fire in a sub-watershed containing Arctic grayling, the Agencies will assess whether debris flows pose a significant risk for Arctic grayling in specific river reaches or tributaries, and if rescue operations or any other protective actions are warranted to forestall potential extirpation of those population units. FWP and USFWS will collaborate on any rescue efforts, and Participating Landowners will provide necessary access to their property to assist these efforts. Floods may displace Arctic grayling of all ages, causing injury, death, or stranding them in inhospitable habitats (e.g., irrigation ditches, depressions in agricultural fields). Late spring floods also can scour spawning beds, causing mortality to developing Arctic grayling embryos. Floods also may compromise the effectiveness of structures installed or upgraded under the Agreement’s conservation measures. In the event of a 5-year flood event (i.e., magnitude of a flood with a 5-year occurrence interval), the Agencies and Participating Landowners shall conduct an assessment of all physical structures installed or maintained as a provision of this Agreement to ensure they are in proper working order. Sediment movement or the sheer force of the flood event may affect physical structures operated under the Agreement. Such structures to be inspected following a 5-year flood event may include, but are not limited to, diversion structures, fish ladders, fish screens, irrigation ditches, and riparian zone fences. Damaged or destroyed structures will be noted and a prioritization list developed to implement repairs as soon as possible.

Wildfire. Grantee shall at all times take reasonable precautions to prevent wildfires from starting or spreading on the Easement Lands, and shall comply with all applicable laws, regulations and directives of any governmental agency having jurisdiction with respect to fire prevention and control. If Grantee or its employees, contractors or licensees cause a wildfire that necessitates suppression action, Grantee shall pay the costs of any necessary fire suppression activities incurred as a result of the wildfire, in accordance with Utah law.
Wildfire. An unwanted wildland fire.

Wildfire. This section will be prepared pursuant to the recent CEQA Guidelines update, which amended the checklist in Appendix G of the CEQA Guidelines to include questions related to fire hazard impacts for projects located on lands classified as state responsibility areas, as defined in section 4102, and on lands classified as very high fire hazard severity zones, as defined in subdivision (i) of section 51177 of the Government Code.” [Pub. Resources Code, § 21083.01 (emphasis added)]. We will review fire hazard severity mapping prepared by CalFire to determine where very high fire hazard severity zones exist on the project site or nearby. This section will also evaluate prevailing wind data, if available from CARB or other sources, site topography, and vegetation mapping, relative to the land use schematic in the Specific Plan to determine the potential for wildfire risk on the project. Secondary impacts related to wildfire, such as toxic smoke and mudslides on burnt slopes will be assessed. Mitigation measures will be provided to reduce potentially significant impacts, if applicable. Mitigation may include measure prohibiting construction involving welding, grinding, or other activities generating sparks or flames on red flag or high fire danger days. Because this is an EIR and no Initial Study is being prepared, the EIR will include a section describing the issues for which a less than significant impact is anticipated. This section will include sufficient evidence to support less than significant impact findings for the following CEQA Appendix G Checklist: Forestry Resources and Mineral Resources.
Wildfire. The EIR section will discuss the potential for the project to increase wildfire risk in the area as well as impacts to evacuation and emergency response. It will include an assessment (based on publicly available information from the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection [CAL FIRE]) of historic wildfires in the region (within a 10-mile radius of the site), including an assessment of the cause and extent of any wildfires. The impact analysis will evaluate whether the project could exacerbate the extent of wildfire hazards in the project area.
Wildfire. CONSULTANT will identify potential impacts associated with wildfire risk including fuel conditions within and adjacent to the project site and the potential for impacts associated with emergency response and evacuation, air pollutants, the need for infrastructure that could exacerbate wildfire risk, and exposure of people or structures to risks associated with post-fire conditions. The Wildfire section of the ADEIR will document potential impacts and, if necessary due to potentially significant impacts, will include mitigation measures for minimizing wildfire risks. Revised 10/1/07 FORM/Amendment to Contract
Wildfire. The proposed Agreement will have less than significant impact on wildfire some mitigation incorporated. Mitigation includes providing graded and covered materials to biomass storage with an asphalt or all-weather surface.
