Description

The National Wildland/Urban Interface Fire Protection Initiative was launched in 1985, the year that wildfires destroyed more than 1400 homes and claimed 44 lives in the U.S. The increasing number of fire fighter deaths and homes destroyed from wildfires are alarming, and they are the direct result of the growth and development taking place in the wildland/urban interface areas throughout the country. The National Wildland/Urban Interface Fire Protection Initiative produced a video satellite broadcast to address increasing concerns about fire fighter safety in the interface. They also produced this booklet to accompany the video. This booklet presents the basics for fighting fire aggressively but safely in the interface. Illustrations.
