Critical fire weather and extremely dry conditions have increased the fire potential for much of the White Mountain Zone. To support these emergency fire conditions, the Southwest Coordination Group has deployed an 11-person federal and state, multi-agency National Fire Prevention Education Team (NFPET), all professionals in wildfire prevention and education. The goal of the NFPET is to increase public awareness of the heightened wildfire risk, promote fire safety messaging, and help reduce the chances of human-caused fire.
