Hawaii Wildfire Management Organization

Healthy ecosystems are necessary for the sustainability of natural resources and communities. As ecosystem health decreases from a variety of factors and as communities expand into fire-prone areas, wildfires are an increasing threat to resources and people. Proactive planning and management is necessary to mitigate wildfire impacts. HWMO facilitates proactive planning, disseminates critical information, and implements fuels management activities and research that protects irreplaceable natural resources and communities throughout the Hawaiian Islands.
