Wildland Fire Management
Wildland Fire Management involves the planning and implementation of strategies to prevent, control, and suppress wildfires in forested and grassland areas. This includes creating firebreaks, conducting controlled burns, and maintaining healthy ecosystems to reduce the risk of large, uncontrolled fires.
Effective management also includes educating the public about fire safety and the importance of respecting fire regulations. Agencies like the U.S. Forest Service and National Park Service work together with local communities to develop fire management plans that balance ecological health with public safety.
