Values At Risk

Register your Values At Risk

Every year in Saskatchewan, values such as cabins, docks and other assets are damaged or destroyed by wildfire. In wildfire suppression terminology, Values At Risk (VAR) are any feature on the land that could be damaged by fire.

Everyone has a role to play in preventing wildfires and minimizing their impact. Find out what you can do to prevent and prepare your property from wildfires here. 

Why should I register my Values At Risk?
If you own a cabin or other important values that are not within a municipal boundary, the first step in protecting them is to inform the Saskatchewan Public Safety Agency (SPSA). This helps the SPSA plan and prioritize what to protect during a wildfire.

How can I register my Values At Risk?
To register your VAR, simply fill out the online form. If you have trouble filling out the form, call 1-800-667-9660 during regular business hours and an SPSA staff member can assist you.

All information provided will remain confidential and will only be used by the SPSA for fire management purposes.

DISCLAIMER: While the SPSA prioritizes protecting personal property, providing information regarding your value(s) does not guarantee that the SPSA can protect your value(s) from a wildfire or other type of disaster. During active wildfires, our top priority is responding to the fires, so we may not be able to reply to submissions right away.
