Download or read book Wildfire Suppression written by Barry T. Hill and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2004-08 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2003, wildfires burned roughly 4 million acres in the U.S., destroyed over 5,000 structures, took the lives of 30 firefighters, & cost over $1 billion to suppress. The substantial expense of fighting wildfires has exceeded the funds appropriated for wildfire suppression (WS) nearly every year since 1990. To pay for WS costs when the funds appropriated are insufficient, the Forest Service & the Interior Dept. have transferred funds from other programs. This report identifies: the amount of funds transferred & reimbursed for WS since 1999, & the programs from which agencies transferred funds; the effects on programs from which funds were taken; & alternative approaches that could be considered for estimating annual WS costs & funding WS.

Book Synopsis Between Two Fires by : Stephen J. Pyne
Download or read book Between Two Fires written by Stephen J. Pyne and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2015-10-15 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From a fire policy of prevention at all costs to today's restored burning, Between Two Fires is America's history channeled through the story of wildland fire management. Stephen J. Pyne tells of a fire revolution that began in the 1960s as a reaction to simple suppression and single-agency hegemony, and then matured into more enlightened programs of fire management. It describes the counterrevolution of the 1980s that stalled the movement, the revival of reform after 1994, and the fire scene that has evolved since then. Pyne is uniquely qualified to tell America’s fire story. The author of more than a score of books, he has told fire’s history in the United States, Australia, Canada, Europe, and the Earth overall. In his earlier life, he spent fifteen seasons with the North Rim Longshots at Grand Canyon National Park. In Between Two Fires, Pyne recounts how, after the Great Fires of 1910, a policy of fire suppression spread from America’s founding corps of foresters into a national policy that manifested itself as a costly all-out war on fire. After fifty years of attempted fire suppression, a revolution in thinking led to a more pluralistic strategy for fire’s restoration. The revolution succeeded in displacing suppression as a sole strategy, but it has failed to fully integrate fire and land management and has fallen short of its goals. Today, the nation’s backcountry and increasingly its exurban fringe are threatened by larger and more damaging burns, fire agencies are scrambling for funds, firefighters continue to die, and the country seems unable to come to grips with the fundamentals behind a rising tide of megafires. Pyne has once again constructed a history of record that will shape our next century of fire management. Between Two Fires is a story of ideas, institutions, and fires. It’s America’s story told through the nation’s flames.

Book Synopsis Wildland fires Forest Service and BLM need better information and systematic approach for assessing the risks of environmental effects : report to congressional requesters. by : Barry T. Hill
Download or read book Wildland fires Forest Service and BLM need better information and systematic approach for assessing the risks of environmental effects : report to congressional requesters. written by Barry T. Hill and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2004 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Decades of fire suppression, as well as changing land management practices, have caused vegetation to accumulate and become altered on federal lands. Concerns about the effects of wildland fires have increased efforts to reduce fuels on federal lands. These efforts also have environmental effects. The requesters asked GAO to (1) describe effects from fires on the environment, (2) assess the information gathered by the Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management (BLM) on such effects, and (3) assess the agencies approaches to environmental risks associated with reducing fuels. This report recommends that the Secretaries of Agriculture and the Interior (1) develop a plan to implement the agencies monitoring framework, (2) develop guidance that formalizes the assessment of landscape-level risks to ecosystems, and (3) clarify existing guidance, working with the Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ), to assess the risks of environmental effects from reducing fuels.

Book Synopsis Wildland Fire Management by : Robin M. Nazzaro
Download or read book Wildland Fire Management written by Robin M. Nazzaro and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2010 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The nation's wildland fire problems have worsened dramatically over the past decade, with more than a doubling of average annual acreage burned and federal appropriations for wildland fire management. The deteriorating fire situation has led the agencies responsible for managing wildland fires on federal lands -- the Forest Service in the Department of Agriculture and four agencies in the Department of the Interior -- to reassess how they respond to wildland fire and to take steps to improve their fire management programs. This report reviewed: (1) progress the agencies have made in managing wildland fire; and (2) key actions previously recommended and are still necessary to improve wildland fire management.
