   "Communities that plan for wildfires have a distinct advantage: less damage when wildfires occur," said International Code Council CEO Rick Weiland."Communities in at-risk areas can take action to reduce the threat of a wildfire with a simple wildfire protection plan.A plan gets everything down on paper, from establishing a team of local decision makers and federal agencies that can help, to telling homeowners how to prepare, identifying areas most at risk and designating evacuation routes."
   
   The United States has seen a significant increase in the number of wildfires damaging homes in areas surrounded by wildlands.
   
   "Often, the same reason people choose to build in wildfire-prone areas—being close to nature—is also a primary reason why their homes are at higher risk," said Weiland.
