Photograph the ignition zone around an invited Paradise home, rebuilding after the Camp Fire

Every rebuilt home in Paradise needs its 0–5 ft and 5–30 ft zones honestly seen before fire season: litter in gutters, mulch against siding, wood piles at walls, unscreened vents. A structured photo survey against the CAL FIRE checklist gives the owner and the follow-on work rungs an exact to-do list. Standard: CAL FIRE defensible-space (PRC 4291) zones + home-hardening checklist. SDG 11/13. Proof: checklist-keyed photo set + ranked list + owner note Method (CAL FIRE defensible-space (PRC 4291) zones + home-hardening checklist. SDG 11/13.): 1. With the owner, photograph the full perimeter: 0–5 ft zone, vents, gutters, deck undersides, and anything combustible against the structure. 2. Mark each photo against the CAL FIRE checklist item it shows. 3. Rank the findings: what the owner can clear by hand this week vs what needs a crew. 4. Deliver the keyed photo set and ranked list to the owner and as proof. Done when: checklist-keyed photo set + ranked list + owner note

This packet is not funded yet, so this figure is a proposed price and not money waiting in escrow. If a buyer funds it, approved proof settles that price onchain. If nobody funds it, approved proof earns provable credit toward the work instead of cash. You see which before you claim, never after.

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it. Typically 45–90 minutes. Method of record: NFPA 1144 / Firewise USA structure-ignition-zone defensible-space assessment — documentation-only from a safe public/yard vantage

Bring

• camera with zoom
• GPS-capable phone
• tape measure or pace-count reference
• Firewise USA zone checklist
• field notebook

Steps

1. 1. Document only — photograph Zone 0 (0-5 ft from the structure), Zone 1 (5-30 ft) and Zone 2 (30-100 ft) from the driveway or yard edge; never enter dense brush or approach a structurally questionable outbuilding.
2. 2. Note vegetation type, spacing and ladder-fuel presence (brush touching tree canopy) in each zone from the safe vantage.
3. 3. Photograph the roof material, gutters, vents, and any firewood or combustible material stacked against the structure.
4. 4. Compile the zone-by-zone findings into a defensible-space checklist naming what a licensed/credentialed vegetation-management crew should clear first; never clear, cut, or move anything during this survey.

If it does not match the plan

• Any combustible material (mulch, firewood, dry vegetation) touching the structure in Zone 0 -> flag as highest-priority clearing item.
• Ladder fuel (brush contacting tree canopy) found in Zone 1 -> flag for a credentialed crew's thinning pass.
• Any structurally unstable or fire-damaged outbuilding observed -> do not approach; note location only and route to the local fire authority.

What counts as done

• Photo set covering all three ignition zones from a safe, named vantage point
• Roof/gutter/combustible-storage condition photographed
• Zone-by-zone checklist compiled naming the follow-on clearing job

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
