Wildland and Prescribed Fire Management
Policy
Implementation Procedures Reference Guide
 |
This document, "Wildland
and Prescribed Fire Management Policy, Implementation Procedures Reference
Guide," represents an interagency effort designed to provide
standardized procedures to guide immediate implementation of the policy
described in the 1995 Federal Wildland Fire Management Policy and
Program Review. Individual agencies will implement the Wildland Fire
Policy to varying degrees, and develop programs utilizing all or part
of the full spectrum of available fire management options. Implementation
will occur as respective agency Fire Management Plans are approved.
Depending upon individual objectives, capabilities, land management and Fire Management Plan completion status, regulatory compliance, and agency missions, agencies will plan and implement fire management programs that will not necessarily mirror each other. However, the information presented in this document does provide a broad overall framework for agencies to operate within. |
