Wildfire Damage Impact Assessment
What did the fire actually cost? We answer that question in a form that survives scrutiny.
The obvious losses are rarely the whole loss
Standing timber value is the easy part. The harder — and often far larger — components are lost growth and future harvest, soil productivity, water quality and yield, habitat, reforestation cost, road and infrastructure damage, and the multi-decade recovery horizon that follows.
A settlement built only on visible damage systematically understates the loss. Our Wildfire Impact Assessment reports document the full economic picture.
