dc.description.abstract | This report highlights the challenges in wildfire recovery and offers policy recommendations for local, state, and federal agencies. The 2020 Labor Day Fires in Oregon had an unprecedented impact, burning over 1 million acres of forest and woodland and forcing more than 40,000 Oregonians to evacuate. The recovery process has been challenging, and this report is informed by insights from government staff directly involved in the recovery efforts. Our goal is to improve the recovery timeline for future disasters by addressing the barriers that hinder successful disaster recovery. . . . While these recommendations are based on the impacts of the 2020 Labor Day fires on private landowners in Lane and Marion counties, we believe they apply to jurisdictions throughout Oregon and can be adapted to recovery for other disasters, not just wildfires. | |
