Why Prescribed Fire Services Are Important
A prescribed fire is a planned fire; it is also sometimes called a “controlled burn” or “prescribed burn,” and is used to meet management objectives. A prescription is a set of conditions that considers the safety of the public and fire staff, weather, and probability of meeting the burn objectives. Prescribed fires can be set for a variety of reasons, ecological, forest health, and hazardous fuel mitigation. Our professionals have years of experience fighting wildfires and understand how to control prescribed burns.
