With the creation of the Joint Fire Science Program (JFSP) came an expectation of the rapid and systematic delivery of solutions to the technical and scientific problems associated with planning for (including managing fuels), fighting, and recovering from wildfires. Although it is clear that a tremendous amount of new knowledge has been generated, there is a general feeling of unease about the rate at which this information diffuses into the fire fighting and natural resource management communities. The purpose of this proposal is to fund an effort to develop a science delivery strategy for JFSP. This strategy will provide an adaptable framework designed to promote integration of information generated by JFSP funded studies at all levels within the sponsoring agencies (USDOI and USDA) as well by fire fighters and resource managers from other federal, state, local, and private organizations.
