Hugo created blowdown in September, 1989. Should have burned sooner but could not get permission. Photo Point in Prescribed Burn Plot 2D. USDA Forest Service - Francis Marion National Forest.

1404029 Prescribed Fire Needle drape in stand which had not been burned in 44 years. Last burn conducted in 1950, Photo taken January 1994. Flomaton, Alabama Dale Wade
1404030 Prescribed Fire Reintroduction of fire (January 1995) 45 years after last burn (1950), by using a heading fire to remove needle drape fuel in midstory. Heading fire used under moist conditions to get flame heights up to mid-story to reduce fuels but consumption of litter layer on soil surface was minor. Needle drape fuels burn quickly and cause little scorch to overstory canopy. Flomatin, Alabama Dale Wade

4800022 Prescribed Fire Site preparation for natural regeneration of shortleaf pine - hardwood mixture is accomplished by chainsaw felling of residual hardwoods immediately after full leaf expansion in the spring followed by a hot broadcast burn in late summer. This sequence of treatments reduces sprouting vigor of hardwoods without the use of herbicides. New hardwood sprouts originate lower on the root stocks providing better quality regeneration, reducing the liklihood of stem decay. Some hardwood sprouts have resprouted after the burn. Robert F. Wittwer
