Overview
In this Fire Management Today article authors David L. Peterson and Morris C. Johnson discuss science-based fuel treatment planning by land management agencies and the need to include:
- A consistent decision process for identifying and planning fuel treatments
- High-quality data for landscapes where treatments are proposed
- An accountability process for documenting and evaluating treatments.
They propose a management/science collaboration framework for decision making using an interdisciplinary team.
