Table Mountain Rancheria, located in Fresno County, has been announced as the 1,000th Firewise USA® community in the state during this year’s Wildfire Preparedness Week celebration. This recognition by the National Fire Protection Association® (NFPA®) highlights the commitment the community has taken to ensure that wildfire risk is reduced and that residents are prepared. Governor Newsom declared May 4-10 as “Wildfire Preparedness Week” with the theme, “Building a Fire-Ready Future: Strengthening Our Defenses, Together,” to emphasize the importance of both collaborative efforts and individual responsibility in reducing and managing wildfire risk.
