Wildfire Risk Management.
Field Resources.
Structure Protection.
Cedar Creek Tactical provides insurance carriers, risk-management partners, and property owners with experienced wildland fire personnel and field resources for wildfire assessment, mitigation, preparedness, and response.
Our programs can support individual high-value properties or larger portfolios of insured locations throughout wildfire-prone areas.
PROPERTY WILDFIRE ASSESSMENT
Know the risk before fire season.
Cedar Creek Tactical conducts field-based wildfire assessments designed to identify vulnerabilities that may affect a property's survivability during a wildfire.
Assessment capabilities include:
- Defensible-space evaluation
- Vegetation and fuel-hazard identification
- Structure vulnerability observations
- Apparatus access and turnaround assessment
- Primary and secondary access/egress evaluation
- Water-source identification
- Address and property identification
- Structure triage considerations
- Property photography and documentation
- Recommended mitigation priorities
Assessments can provide insurers, risk managers, and property owners with actionable field information before wildfire conditions develop.
Best suited for: Individual properties, high-value homes, ranches, commercial properties, timber holdings, and insured-property portfolios.
WILDFIRE MITIGATION & PROPERTY PREPARATION
Turn an assessment into action.
Identifying a wildfire hazard is only the first step. Cedar Creek Tactical can provide field crews to address identified hazards and improve property preparedness.
Capabilities may include:
- Defensible-space improvement
- Vegetation and hazardous-fuel reduction
- Ladder-fuel reduction
- Removal or relocation of combustible material
- Access-route improvement
- Structure-perimeter preparation
- Water-source preparation
- Sprinkler and water-delivery preparation
- Pre-season property preparation
Work can be prioritized according to hazards identified during the property's wildfire assessment.
Best suited for: Properties requiring corrective work before fire season or before periods of elevated wildfire potential.
RED FLAG & HIGH-FIRE-DANGER STANDBY
Resources positioned before the incident.
When extreme fire weather is forecast, Cedar Creek Tactical can provide pre-positioned personnel and resources to support participating properties or designated geographic areas.
Rather than waiting until a wildfire is already threatening a property, resources can be positioned based on anticipated conditions and operational requirements.
Potential capabilities include:
- Pre-event property checks
- Verification of access and water sources
- Last-minute mitigation and preparation
- Mobile patrol
- Fire-weather and incident monitoring
- Property status reporting
- Resource pre-positioning
- Rapid transition to assigned wildfire operations when appropriate
Best suited for: Insurance portfolios, high-value property programs, private communities, ranches, timber holdings, and geographic concentrations of insured properties.
ACTIVE WILDFIRE PROPERTY RESPONSE
Qualified personnel when wildfire threatens.
During an active wildfire, Cedar Creek Tactical can provide experienced wildland personnel and mobile resources to evaluate and prepare assigned properties when access, conditions, incident objectives, and applicable authorities allow.
Operations may include:
- Property reconnaissance
- Structure triage
- Defensible-space improvement
- Removal of immediate combustible hazards
- Water-source establishment
- Sprinkler preparation
- Mobile patrol
- Spot-fire detection
- Property monitoring
- Structure-protection support
- Post-fire property checks
- Field documentation and reporting
Cedar Creek Tactical personnel operate within established safety, access, incident-command, and jurisdictional requirements.
No property is worth compromising firefighter or public safety.
Built for Insurance & Risk-Management Partners
For organizations managing multiple insured properties, Cedar Creek Tactical can develop a coordinated wildfire program rather than treating each property as an isolated assignment.
A program can combine:
ASSESSMENT → MITIGATION → PRE-POSITIONING → RESPONSE → DOCUMENTATION
Properties can be assessed and documented before fire season, allowing field personnel to arrive with a better understanding of access, hazards, available water, and property-specific considerations.
During periods of elevated wildfire activity, resources can then be prioritized based on fire location, weather, exposure, and operational feasibility.
Information From the Ground
Insurance partners need more than personnel in the field. They need reliable information about what is happening at their insured properties.
Depending on the assignment, Cedar Creek Tactical can provide:
- Property assessment documentation
- Before-and-after photographs
- Mitigation documentation
- Time-stamped field photographs
- Property status reports
- Fire-exposure observations
- Resource activity documentation
- Post-event property checks
- Incident-related field notes
This creates a documented operational history from pre-fire preparation through post-event assessment.
Highly Qualified. Highly Capable.
Cedar Creek Tactical's primary mission is providing highly qualified, highly capable personnel.
Our staffing capabilities range from FFT2 firefighters through Crew and Engine Bosses, including fallers, allowing resources to be configured around the requirements of the assignment.
Our personnel bring experience operating in wildland environments where changing conditions, communications, accountability, sound judgment, and operational discipline matter.
