The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources received a $300,000 Project Grant award from the US Department of Agriculture Forest Service to support the Wisconsin Wildland Urban Interface Education and Community Support program. Funded through the State & Private Forestry Cooperative Fire Assistance program (CFDA 10.698), this award will allow the Wisconsin DNR to deliver wildfire risk reduction education and assistance to communities from June 2021 through June 2025. The Cooperative Fire Assistance program aims to prevent, control, and suppress rural and non-federal forest fires, including through development and transfer of new technologies. Under this award, the Wisconsin DNR will work directly with Wisconsin communities to help reduce wildfire risks and support local fire prevention and control efforts in the state's wildland urban interface areas through June 2025.
