Coverage contract
- fire performance · reviewed: Dovetail applies the UF/IFAS flammability key to northeastern Minnesota natives and publishes placement for 38 exact source owners. FireApproved exposes those rows only as northeastern Minnesota regional context and preserves the 3-to-30-foot versus beyond-30-foot source placement.
Table 2 rates 38 wildfire-resistant, non-invasive plants low or moderate flammability using the UF/IFAS Circular 1453 methodology (Behm, Long, Monroe, Randall, Zipperer, Hermansen-Baez 2004), with the document's own placement mapping — low-flammability plants may be planted 3 to 30 feet from a building, moderate ones beyond 30 feet. Verdict map: low = recommend, moderate = mixed.
