From the text ... 'Using state-of-the-art fire behavior modeling and strategic placement of fuel treatments, fireshed assessments are being hailed as an innovative approach to the tremendous fuels problem that is dominating public lands management across the country. The assessments have been found to be especially useful in areas where forest management is contested and fuel treatments of any variety are controversial.'
