From the text:'It*s imperative you have the right messages to explain and justify "prescribed burning.” The messages must be tailored to the audiences you need to reach and be adapted to the delivery system you use to send the messages. All three elements are important — the…

In 1983 the most severe fire in Victorian mountain forests for over forty years killed extensive areas of highly productive eucalypt forest, requiring a large scale timber salvage and forest rehabilitation program. The scheduling of these programs was dependent upon a rapid and…
