NOTICE: We can provide specific local fire information and answer directly related questions. However, we are currently not doing oral/on-camera interviews regarding issues related to coronavirus. We can answer those questions in writing. This policy was implemented in order to make sure forests and units remain in alignment and avoid any confusion as this is an unprecedented time with a lot of information and moving parts.
Fire management combines elements of fire prevention, fire suppression, and fire use. Wise use of fire approximates the historical role of fire and enhances long-term wildland values. Learn about our fire program.
