Teton County gets wildfire grant

September 21, 2022 by Jackson Hole Radio

Togwotee Fire

Teton County is getting a state grant to hire a consultant to revise the Community Wildfire Protection Plan.
Teton County’s plan was designed to prioritize and maximize fuels mitigation efforts within the County.
Teton County completed its original countywide Community Wildfire Protection Plan in 2005 and then updated it in 2014.
In 2020, officials said the plan needed to be updated again so that it meets the criteria of the Healthy Forests Restoration Act and Wyoming Forest Action Plan and remains eligible for funding from Wyoming State Forestry Division.
The Forestry Division grant is a 50/50 match grant between the state and Jackson Hole Fire/EMS. The total cost of the revision will be $320,000. The actual grant awarded is for $160,000.
