Wildland Fire Amendment

The Coronado National Forest amended its 1986 Forest Land and Resource Management Plan (LRMP) with a proposed Wildland Fire Amendment.

The purpose of the Wildland Fire Amendment was to update the LRMP's existing wildland fire management direction to comply with the 2001 Federal Wildland Fire Management policy (also know as the Federal Fire Policy).

The Federal Fire Policy recognizes the essential role of fire in maintaining natural systems and allows managers a broader range of options when responding to wildland fires.

Changes were made to the Forest-wide Goals, Standards and Guidelines in the LRMP to integrate the Federal Fire policy. These changes were documented at the Wildland Fire Amendment Home Page.
