Arkansas runs construction through its Fire Prevention Code, a three-volume set built on the international fire, building, and residential codes — none of it a wildfire interface book. The wildfire question lands on the national layer, and what applies to your house picks it up there.
No city or county construction application is sourced in the state, and what we can't tell you yet holds the line at what has actually been opened.
Planting is where the numbers live: 473 records documented across USDA half-zones 7a through 8b, with 104 flagged invasive or noxious. Living here sorts the Ozark-to-Delta range.
What applies in Arkansas
Arkansas does not adopt a statewide WUI construction book. The Arkansas Fire Prevention Code is a three-volume set based on the International Fire, Building, and Residential Codes. The Department of Labor states that code applies statewide. IWUIC is not those volumes. Confirm with the building official.
State distribution, native range, invasive status, hardiness, and fire evidence answer different questions. None is a planting approval. The list itself is on Grow — this page carries the aggregates.
For Arkansas Firewise committees, fire districts, and HOA architectural
committees. The frame stays current as the evidence does, so it does not
go stale the way a copied PDF does. Free to use with the attribution line
