Fire Management
This section is dedicated to public education on Forest Fire Safety. A Draft Forest Fire Management Plan has been developed and is in the process of being finalized. It includes a comprehensive risk assessment and access assessment to ensure fuel loads and response routes are known to our local fire departments.
In 2008 the County partnered with the Alnwick/Haldimand Fire Department to operate 5 Forest Fire Risk Meter signs warning of the current fire hazard. The signs are placed around the Forest Boundary on County and Township Roads.
A great informational website for information on Fire Safety is Partners in Protection. This website has information on the FireSmart program-Protecting Your Community from Wildfires. Click here to view a Well Thought Out FireSmart Protection Plan from the FireSmart Program.
