With more than 35 years of experience and dedication to reducing wildfire losses, Pat Durland started Stone Creek Fire LLC (SCF) to share proven wildfire loss reduction strategies and tactics with the many communities facing these potential losses. Since 2004 SCF has played a national role in communicating, planning and implementing wildfire mitigation programs and principles that reduce these potential tragedies and damages by fighting wildfire losses 'smarter, rather than harder!'

What is Wildfire Mitigation and Why do it?

Wildfire mitigation is the identification and implementation of tasks which reduce loss and damage from uncontrolled wildland fires. It involves those pre-event actions which most effectively reduce the potential ignition of homes, commercial structures and their surrounding landscapes. These actions are most often 1) affordable, 2) easy to accomplish and 3) effective in improving a property's ability to resist ignition from the flames and embers of wildfires. When reducing wildfire losses, it's the little things that make big differences!
