Brief Project Summary: Who, What, Where, Desired Outcomes in relation to NFP Goals and Community Risk Assessment and
Mitigation Plans (This should summarize page 2).
Okanogan County is the largest county in Washington State. Lacking a standardized reflective addressing system, distances,
remoteness and catastrophic wildfires create a challenging situation for emergency response. Our proposal provides for better
response times, enhanced information in emergencies, and a standardized reflective addressing system to improve onsite
identification of properties.
The desired outcome involves Okanogan County Planning GIS/Addressing, Sheriff, and Three Local Coordinating Groups working
with WA DNR, 14 Fire Districts, Community Groups, and local residents to reduce fire risk, enhance emergency response for fire
protection and aid in implementing risk assessment goals. This will be achieved by installing standardized emergency response
reflective addressing plates on residential driveways throughout Okanogan Countys 14 Fire Districts.

Group.” If you haven’t worked with a local coordination group, why not?
Response:
Installing standardized emergency response reflective addressing plates on residential driveways throughout Okanogan Countys 14 rural fire districts.
Project Location: The unincorporated portions of Fourteen [14] Rural Fire Protection Districts in Okanogan County and interested communities. Specifically
including Okanogan County Fire Protection Districts 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 and extends into the Colville Reservation. With 75% of
Okanogan County in State and Federal ownership, these districts are bounded by public lands. Okanogan County Rural Fire Districts provide protection to at
least 1,042 square miles and 10,180 rural addresses. Composed of intermixed communities, where structures are scattered throughout wildland areas.
Relation to community plan: Okanogan County in cooperation with 3 LCGs and 14 FPDs, is working towards a County wide CWPP. This project will enhance
our endevors with community risk assessments.
Delivery: Through coordination with local fire districts and key community leaders and public outreach meetings the standardized reflective addressing plates
will be distributed and/or installed within their respective districts. Fire Districts will enlist the aid of organizations in their communities to adopt a portion of their
district
Enhance Fire Protection Capabilities: Okanogan Countys GIS cross jurisdictional transportation mapping, Road Atlas, and road signage; has been an
invaluable aid in developing emergency service route assessment plans for incident transportation planning and evacuation routes. Standardized emergency
response reflective addressing would greatly facilitate these efforts by filling in gaps in current information and providing a standard in our emergency response
program. The lack of an adequate signing system in our Fire Districts has contributed to extremely long response times due to emergency responders
searching for addresses in remote locations. Often fire risk assessments are difficult to complete due to lack of property identification.
Desired Outcome of Project: Reduce response times, reduce risk to fire fighters in initial attack, suppression and evacuation instances, reduce risk to the
public during evacuations, standardize identification of properties for fire risk assessment, aid all emergency agencies through standardized reflective property
identification. This will assist in collecting data for development of GIS layer interface, incident management and evacuation mapping.
Time Frames and Matching Funds: Anticipated project period is April 2005 through April 2006.
A large contributing resource for the project will be community participation, labor and resources. GIS mapping will be used for site identification, project
tracking and pre-project planning.
In-kind matching funds will provide for administration, mapping, coordination, labor and fuel and resources estimated at $32,347, approximately 54% of the
grant request.
Fire Risk Assessment: Fire risk assessment cannot occur with out proper identification of properties. This project will enhance the quality of risk assessments.
All future fire risk assessment modeling projects in Okanogan County are dependent upon a physical address identification for GIS mapping.
Monitoring: Will be achieved through GIS tracking and reporting.
1. Prevention of Wildland Urban Interface Fire (40 points)
Describe how the proposal will lead to:
A. Reduction of wildland urban interface fire
B. Reduction of structural losses
C. Homeowner action and personal responsibility to reduce fire loss of private land.
Response:
A. Okanogan County is the largest county in Washington State. Lacking a standardized reflective addressing system, distance,
remoteness and recent catastrophic wildfires, creates challenging situations for emergency response. Our proposal provides for
better response times, a standardized reflective addressing system to improve onsite identification of properties for risk
assessment, and reduces the high risk to firefighter safety during initial response, suppression and evacuation operations.
B. Okanogan Countys GIS cross jurisdictional transportation mapping, Road Atlas, and road signage; has been an invaluable aid in
developing emergency service route assessment plans for incident transportation planning and evacuation routes. Standardized
emergency response reflective addressing would greatly facilitate these efforts by filling in gaps in current information and providing
a standard in our emergency response program. The lack of an adequate signing system in our Fire Districts has contributed to
extremely long response times due to emergency responders searching for addresses in remote locations. This project would
reduce response times and thus reduce structural losses.
C. Landowner responsibility will be addressed through coordination with local fire districts, key community leaders and public
outreach meetings the standardized reflective addressing plates will be distributed and/or installed within their respective districts.
Fire Districts will enlist the aid of organizations and individuals in their communities to adopt a portion of their district thus distributing
the labor of this burden and inviting ownership in the project.
2.
Community Participation (30 points)
Detail the community participation and collaboration for this project. Define clearly why you believe your group
will be successful in delivering the proposal to the target audience. How will the project be sustained or carried
forward beyond project timelines? How will the project be monitored and evaluated?
Response:
Collaboration has occurred through the three Local Coordinating Groups with members representing the state, federal, local
government and community groups. Implementation will benefit future projects and aid in fire suppression.
Supporters are the Okanogan County [OC] Commissioners, OC Sheriff, OC Planning GIS/Addressing, OC Fire Chiefs Association,
local OC Fire Districts, Okanogan and Highlands Districts of WA DNR and US Forest Service. Supporters offer a commitment to
coordinate labor to assist in achieving the desired outcome.
Through coordination with local fire districts, key community leaders and public outreach meetings the project will increase
awareness of the need for local community collaboration and demonstrate a need for cooperative action.
This plan includes a leadership role for local fire districts in coordination and implementation with community volunteers with
opportunities for individuals in the community to learn of the need for collaborative efforts in enhancing fire protection on a
community level.
Measurement of outcome will be the number of structures equipped with a standardized reflective address plate, the mapping and
enhanced risk assessment for these structures.
3.
Partnerships (30 points)
Detail the level of involvement of any local multi-agency, emergency services, non-profit coordination group, and
provide a list of partners for this project with their current and expected level of involvement, including any kind of
contributions or matching funds. What is the project relationship to a community risk assessment or mitigation
plan? Include the name of the plan, date it was prepared, and local contact to get a copy of the plan if requested.
Response:
Address installation will be coordinated with Okanogan County GIS & Sheriff, fieldwork coordination and labor by local fire districts
and emergency services with cooperation of Community Service Groups and volunteers.
Labor of installation/contribution is estimated at $32,347.00 a 54% match.
Okanogan County is currently working on a County wide CWPP. This project will aid in community risk assessments through
uniform identification of properties.
