Wildland Fire Management

Wildland Fire Management involves strategies and practices to prevent, control, and manage wildfires in forests, grasslands, and other natural areas. It aims to protect life, property, and ecosystems by using techniques such as prescribed burns, fire breaks, and controlled firefighting. This approach balances ecological health, community safety, and resource protection, considering factors like weather, terrain, and fire behavior. Effective management requires collaboration among agencies, landowners, and communities to reduce wildfire risk, restore landscapes, and prepare for potential fire events, ultimately fostering resilience in both nature and human settlements.
