Western Wildland Urban Interface Grant Program

How it works

Fremont County Fire describes the Western Wildland Urban Interface Grant Program as the primary grant it has used to provide wildland fire hazard mitigation for residents of Fremont County. The program is run through the Fremont County Wildland Fire Management Program and is framed as a cost-share source for homeowners.

What the money covers

The official page says the grant provides cost-share monies available to homeowners for fuel mitigation and forest health activities. The same page says the broader hazardous fuels program is meant to provide public education about fire-resistant construction techniques, ignition-resistant landscaping, and wildfire mitigation plans that reduce hazards on and around a homeowner’s property.

Amounts and matching

The page does not state a dollar cap, percentage match, reimbursement method, or whether work must be paid first and reimbursed later. It only says the program provides cost-share monies.

How to apply

The page does not give application steps, deadlines, or a formal intake process. It does provide the program contact information on the official page for homeowners seeking more information.

Timing and deadlines

No open/close dates or application window are stated on the official page.

Important note

Because the page does not spell out current funding cycles or the exact application process, the safest reading is that this is an existing county wildfire mitigation assistance program, but the detailed terms are not published on the homepage.
