Campbell Tract is 730 unique wildland acres in the middle of Anchorage, Alaska with a population of 297,000. Immediately adjacent to the tract is a significant wildland-urban interface. Managed by the BLM Anchorage District, the land receives a major amount of recreational use by residents, and any changes or activities generate a high degree of public interest. This season, crews from BLM?s Alaska Fire Service enhanced the defensible space surrounding the facilities, and created a fuel break on a portion of the tract infested with spruce bark beetles. The Campbell Tract work is underway now with good community support and has been well accepted as a vital urban fuel reduction project by BLM.
