An open house on Oregon’s new community wildfire risk reduction programs is scheduled for July 1 in The Dalles.  The events will offer opportunities to learn about new defensible space and home hardening standards, as well as the draft wildfire hazard map.  The open house will begin with a short presentation and introductions, but visitors may stop in at any point during the event to get questions answered about the draft hazard map and associated community wildfire programs.  Representatives from the Oregon Department of Forestry, Oregon State University, Oregon State Fire Marshal’s office, Department of Consumer and Business Services’ Building Codes and Financial Regulation Divisions, and Wildfire Programs Advisory Council members will be on hand to answer questions.  The open house will be on July 1 from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the Fort Dalles Readiness Center.
