Wildfire Suppression Clause Samples
The Wildfire Suppression clause outlines the responsibilities and procedures for managing and responding to wildfires that may affect the property or project covered by the agreement. Typically, this clause specifies which party is responsible for implementing fire prevention measures, coordinating with local fire authorities, and covering the costs associated with suppression efforts. For example, it may require the property owner to maintain defensible space or the contractor to halt work during high-risk periods. The core function of this clause is to allocate responsibility and ensure prompt, effective action in the event of a wildfire, thereby minimizing damage and liability for all parties involved.
Wildfire Suppression. The DIVISION and the FPA will utilize the “closest forces” concept for all wildland fire responses. This concept dictates that the closest available, appropriate resources respond to initial attack fires, regardless of jurisdiction, whenever there is a critical and immediate need for the protection of life and property. Beyond initial attack, the "closest forces" concept is modified and the respective agencies will request the most appropriate resource to aid in the suppression of a wildfire. In lieu of established rates, the DIVISION will pay FPA volunteer fire departments $20 per hour (with a two hour minimum) per fire engine/tender for wildland fire suppression responses in the FPA.
