From the text...'A long-term study designed to gather information of fire danger and the occurrence of forest fires in Georgia was started in 1959. This work is being conducted by the Southern Forest Fire Laboratory, with the cooperation of the Georgia Forest Research Council and the Georgia Forestry Commission. The objectives of this study are (1) to build up an accurate record of forest fire and fire danger data for each of the 10 state fire protection districts and (2) to establish trends, rates of change, and other relationships between fire danger and selected items of fire business that may be useful in state fire control management.'
