“Project Andrew Yavapai,” a collective effort of people, and local, state and federal agencies, have all worked together to make the Prescott urban-wildland interface a safer place to live in the midst of wildfire threats.
Yavapai County is fourth in the nation for the number of Firewise Communities – 38. To attain that number, a multitude of people, and local, state and federal agencies, have all worked together to make the Prescott urban-wildland interface a safer place to live in the midst of wildfire threats.
PAWUIC was founded in 1990. “For 28 years, we’ve been educating the public about fire, teaching them Firewise behavior, and obtaining state and federal grants to allow thinning projects on both private property and in the national forest,” he explained in the video
