Really good points, and really calls into focus the need to empower individual counties to define their own fire policies (I think that's the right scale).

Counties would be good. Or something similar to our air quality districts, which are almost county-shaped with a few added merges and splits: https://ww3.arb.ca.gov/capcoa/dismap.htm

In BC there are Fire Centres which have their own level of management:

The province is broken down by geography, terrain, and biome, so that specific resources and skillsets can be developed for each potential fire condition.
