A PROTECT Grant was awarded to TRPA from the FHWA in 2024. This grant will support the development of a Resilience Improvement Plan that assesses the Basin's transportation system’s vulnerabilities in the face of wildfires, extreme winter weather events and other natural hazards. The project also will assess necessary upgrades to the region’s communications infrastructure to ensure that transportation and utility entities, fire service, law enforcement, environmental organizations and community-based groups can benefit from an integrated, efficient, safe evacuation during emergencies.
