Outline 2 Background What are we doing? What is still needed? What will be done in the future? Conclusion/Questions Photo by Jennifer Evans, North Carolina State University Fort Bragg, North Carolina

Background-Challenges National Prescribed Fire Use Survey Report (2012) Listed Top 3 Challenges:  Capacity  Liability  Smoke Management/Air Quality A National Cohesive Wildland Fire Management Strategy’s (2012) Barriers in SE Include:  Air Quality  Policy  Lack of Resources 3 Photo by Laurie Gharis, North Carolina State University

Background-SERPPAS Prescribed Fire Work Group Priorities Increase capacity to burn Minimize risk of liability Minimize local smoke impacts; maximize coordination between air quality and fire communities Ensure resources to implement increased prescribed fire operations 4 Photo by Jennifer Evans, North Carolina State University

What Are We Doing? Smoke Management/Air Quality Mobile App- Curriculum 5

What Are We Doing? Liability State law & liability summaries Curriculum Webinars 6

What Are We Doing? Training Trainer’s guide  Online, integrated curriculum  Modules include prescribed fire for new landowners, fire safety, smoke management/air quality, and liability Webinars 7

What Are We Doing? 8 Resources Summary of prescribed fire resources Cost estimates

What Is Still Needed? 9 SupportRequired NumberAnnual Cost Burn Teams8$1,800,000 Additional Certified Burners 390$140,000 Air Quality/Prescribed Fire Meetings 25$85,000 Fort Bragg, North Carolina (Fire & Ice)

What Is Still Needed? Increased Burning  Short Term-Burn Team  Long Term-Training Partnerships  Air Quality and Prescribed Fire  Private, State, & Federal Policy  State Statutes  Exceptional Events 10 FireSmoke StateNegligenceGross NegligenceNegligenceGross Negligence VAx NC x SCx x GA x x FL x x ALx x MSx x LAx x TXxxxx

What Will Be Done in the Future? Finish integrated curriculum Develop prescribed fire videos focused on private landowners Field classes for private landowners and key stakeholders unfamiliar with prescribed fire Options for resource sharing 12 Fort Bragg, North Carolina

What Do We Expect in the Future? Changes in the climate  Sea level rise  Increasing temperatures  Reduction in water availability 2. Fiscal constraints  Prescribed burning is not a 9-5 job  Training is important  Burns must be conducted regularly to see benefits  Weather can prevent burns  Lost burn days (due to fiscal constraints) are hard to make up Photo by Jennifer Evans, North Carolina State University
