Fuel-breaks are being built in central California as part of a program aimed at preventing or controlling disaster fires. If fuel-breaks are to serve their purpose, accumulated dead and live fuels must be removed periodically. Prescribed burning may be the answer to the problem of maintenance. This report considers and answers such questions as: When should burning be done? What factors must be considered? How should burning be done? and what are the costs?
