This workshop will help guide participants through the essential elements of creating simple yet effective burn plans to reduce fire hazard and improve land health. Learn about everything needed to have a safe and successful burn plan that meets CAL FIRE permitting requirements, using the CAL FIRE burn plan template. Including developing burn unit objectives, identify ways to protect important features in and near the burn area (like homes, water systems). Describe the weather, or a weather prescription, to achieve the desired results. Figure out how many people and how much water is needed to burn safely. Learn how to describe what is needed for the basic steps involved including: lighting or firing, holding or keeping the fire in control, and essential notifications (i.e. neighbors, fire district).
