where the water infrastructure is old and unlikely to have recycled water anytime soon. It also won't stop embers from being thrown 2 miles, but it would be another layer in the Swiss cheese defense strategy for fire (like with COVID protection) -- banana buffers would significantly slow the ground-level progression of a fire into a neighborhood at the WUI, and home hardening would prevent embers from catching the house on fire.
I have a new project as well, focused on instantaneous detection of wildfires -- a Purple Air style crowdsourcing system for early fire detection:
