Definitions of Fire Condition Classes
1 Forested areas with an historically short fire return interval usually have frequent fires of low intensity
2 One or more fire return intervals have been missed, possibly resulting in increased fire sizes and intensities and decreased landscape mosaics and diversity
3 Multiple fire return intervals have been missed resulting in dramatic departure from historical conditions
