Abstract

The proposed research project 0-6735 will document lessons learned for recent wildfire events and study the role of TxDOT in the mitigation, containment and response to wildfires. It will develop a comprehensive protocol to help TxDOT effectively respond to wildfire situations that may occur in the State. This protocol will be presented in the form of "Best Practices" based on information gathered from many sources both from within TxDOT and from agencies outside the Department. This research will also develop a training course for TxDOT personnel who have to deal with wildfire situations and will conduct four regional training workshops.
