Fire-prone communities and insurance companies seek relief from uncontrolled wildfire loss

For Immediate Release

WALNUT GROVE/SACRAMENTO, Calif./EWORLDWIRE/June 12, 2008 --- A private industry-leading provider of wildfire suppression and prevention has announced a suite of private protection services targeted at fire-prone communities and insurance companies from uncontrolled wildfire loss.

Fire Stop, a California-based company with experience in wildland fire has bundled a combination of crew and equipment to provide exclusively available, private protection services throughout the United States. Private firefighting resources have been available to the Federal Government under contract for many years, this offer is the first of it's kind to the private sector. For those who live in constant threat of uncontrolled wildfire, these new services offer added protection to otherwise traditional fire response. The service is organized into Wildfire Protection Modules, or WPM's. The module includes four experienced private Firefighters, a specialized wildfire engine and vegetation reducing equipment. Multiple WPM's are available in any given area depending on size and threat.

"Fighting wildfire happens six months in advance of seeing flames. Residents and communities should take proactive measures to protect their homes and property," explains Chris Dusa, co-owner of Fire Stop. The company has organized an array of services including defensible space clearing, neighborhood fuel reduction efforts, perimeter fire breaks in the vegetation, structure protection using state of the art and environmentally friendly gel and full out wildfire suppression as required.

Nearly every community has some form of existing emergency fire response. These new privately-available offerings augment and do not replace or compete with traditional 911 services. Fire Stop has a long history of fighting fire. The company has been providing wildfire suppression services to the US Government under contract for over nineteen years and throughout the western fourteen states.

Interested persons involved or responsible for providing such services to their communities or neighborhoods should contact Fire Stop at 'http://www.gelprotection.com' or 'http://www.fire-stop.com'.
