The event will be the first Pacific Northwest focused wildfire conference, including a focused two-day conference agenda featuring regional State leaders, key Federal stakeholders, as well as local fire services and an associated exhibition. The Pacific Northwest Wildfire Conference will be an integral event in terms of reporting best practices, sharing resources for prevention, suppression, and recovery, and understanding the opportunities provided by the latest innovations and technologies.”
