Definitions of Categories of Inventoried Roadless Areas | | | | | |
1B | Inventoried roadless area where road construction or reconstruction is not allowed | | | | | |
1B-1 | Inventoried roadless area where road construction or reconstruction is not allowed, and the forest plan recommends as wilderness | | | | | |
1C | Inventoried roadless area where road construction or reconstruction is allowed | | | | | |
| | | | | | | |
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 | | | | | |
| | | | | |
Definitions of Fire Regimes | | | | | |
1 | 0-35+ years/low severity | | | | | |
2 | 0-35+ years/stand-replacement | | | | | |
The Fire Regimes are described in terms of frequency and severity and represent pre-settlement, historical fire processes. Fire regimes I and II represent frequent fire return intervals. The 0-35+ years/low severity fire regime (I) occurs mostly on forested land. The 0-35+years/stand-replacement regime (II) occurs mostly on grasslands and shrublands. Fire regimes III, IV, and V have longer fire return intervals and occur on forest lands, shrublands, and grasslands. | | | | | |
