Task · part of 9. Taking action. Do ONE

9(c). A Firewise assessment, a counselor-approved project, and a report

Optional May not apply Often forgotten

This may not apply to you. You have not answered "Requirement 9: which way will you take action?" yet. Answer it and this step will either settle or drop off.

A home or building in the wildland-urban interface, a Scout camp building included. Identify the risks, reduce them with a project your counselor approves, and write a brief report.

Note. The project needs your counselor's approval before you start it. A Scout camp building or facility counts as the building to assess.
