Description

From the text ... 'Managing wildland fire to achieve land and resource management goals continues to be riddled with misperceptions and misinformation, which have limited both programmatic growth and overall effectiveness. As more credibility has been placed on identifying best practices for wildland fire management, efficiency and accomplishment have improved; yet despite this development, resistance still affects resource agencies to some degree today.'
