Coverage contract

fire performance · reviewed: University of Kentucky Cooperative Extension and the Kentucky Division of Forestry publish this small-woodland guidance for Kentuckians. FireApproved exposes its 13 exact species or genus owners while retaining the prose-example grain. It is not a scored or comprehensive state table.

Prose guidance naming three highly flammable plants to remove near the home (eastern red cedar, any pine, holly) and ten trees and shrubs that work well in defensible space. Verdict map: named-flammable = avoid, works-well = recommend. Thirteen taxa, resolved from common names with the resolution recorded on each row.

Kentucky's only named-species wildfire guidance. Tier 2: the mentions are a prose sentence, not a rated table. The live official 1,458,364-byte PDF exactly matched the pinned input on 2026-08-26; SHA-256: 29825c5115cb56bcceb556280deea4123d2da56b6fbc1ca2eb653564248f29b2.
